MANILA, Philippines — The private operator of Ninoy Aquino International Airport (Naia) is conducting its own investigation of a taxi driver who charged his passengers P1,260 for a five-kilometer ride from Terminal 3 to Terminal 2.
In a statement late Monday, the New Naia Infra Corp. (NNIC) said that only accredited Transport Network Vehicle Services such as Grab and Joyride Super Taxi are allowed to pick up passengers at Naia.

“Metered taxis are allowed entry strictly for drop-offs, to ensure public access to the airport, but they are not authorized to solicit or accept passengers,” it stressed.
It added that free inter-terminal shuttle buses are available every 15 minutes, operating on a continuous loop throughout the day, for the convenience of passengers. —Jerome Aning
