AT least seven people were injured when a ceiling at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 1 on Good Friday fell.
The new NAIA Infra Corp. (NNIC) yesterday confirmed the incident, saying a ceiling panel collapsed around 10:43 a.m. on April 3, 2026, in the West Arrival Curb C area outside the passenger terminal building of NAIA Terminal 1, near a food concession outlet.
The NNIC said seven individuals in the vicinity sustained injuries and were attended to immediately. All are in stable condition.
NNIC’s medical team, airport security personnel, and the PNP Aviation Security Group immediately responded, secured the area, and assisted those affected.
The area was immediately cordoned off, and NNIC’s engineering team has since inspected the surrounding section and confirmed that it is safe for normal operations.
Investigations are ongoing to determine the cause of the incident.
The NNIC said it is working closely with the relevant authorities and will take the necessary action based on the findings.
“NNIC continues to provide all necessary assistance to those involved. The safety and well-being of passengers, airport workers, and visitors remain its top priority,” it said in a statement.
