It is the people’s desire to go somewhere whether for leisure or business which dictates the demand for transport, and conversely, transport accessibility determines the demand for a tourism destination. MBOpinions READ:
Dismay recently replaced hope that the country’s economy is on the road to bouncing back through tourism, one of the Philippines’ biggest economic stimulators. As thousands of tourists and balikbayans made an influx to the Philippines during the holidays, tens of thousands literally started their New Year stranded in our flagship airport following a power outage at Ninoy Aquino International Airport .
If the NAIA fiasco was a deliberate act whether for political or military advantage, is yet to be proven and if so, like other conspiracy theories, will take an arduous amount of time and evidence to prove so with so much complex information on politics and economics. What can be acted upon now is proactively addressing the more apparent issues.
In fact, Atty. Señeres said that all of these are in actuality, in the proper implementation and spirit of the Air Passenger Bill of Rights, stating that “passengers must be given that VIP treatment during these types of emergencies, otherwise stated.” If we truly aim to boost tourism, it is high time to focus on the air transport industry. Filipinos were indignant when NAIA was named as the world’s worst airport from 2011 to 2013 by the widely cited travel website Guide to Sleeping in Airports, describing NAIA as “large and frustrating.” But if there is a takeaway from the fiasco, it is to accept the challenge to develop the country’s aviation sector.
