MANILA, Philippines – The Civil Aviation of the Philippines (CAAP) has temporarily banned aircraft from operating at the Laoag International Airport in the evening due to the absence of a lighting system, which was damaged by Typhoon Mario.
“Airlines are only allowed to operate during day time from 6 am to 6 pm until the grounded portions of the runway are fixed,” CAAP said in its advisory on Monday, September 22.
Electrical connections of the airport’s runway edge light were grounded when the Typhoon Mario brought torrential downpour in the area last week.
The airport services the flights of Cebu Pacific, Sky Pasada, and PAL Express, connecting Ilocos Norte to other destinations in the Philippines.
“CAAP technical personnel are on site and started fixing the said grounded runway edge lights connection at runway 01/19,” the advisory said. – Rappler.com
