MANILA, Philippines — Several flights were grounded on Tuesday, April 23, after a magnitude 6.1 earthquake was felt in some parts of Luzon and badly hit Pampanga on Monday.

The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines reported that there was broken glass at Clark International Airport's control tower.

The Department of Transportation said the tower is not being utilized as it is undergoing damage assessment.

Clark International Airport Corporation and the DOTr said they are conducting further checks on the integrity of the airport terminal structure and facilities.

They added that the CIA did not sustain any damage on the runways and taxiways but it is closing operations for 24 hours for safety reasons and to pave way for the continuous assessment check. The closure of operations started at 7:40 p.m. on Monday.

The flights affected were international and domestic flights of Cebu Pacific, Air Asia and Philippine Airlines.

These airlines said it already notified the affected passengers and advised them to take any of the following options:

Rebook their flights for travel within 30 days from original departure date, free of charge
Get a full refund
Re-route to flights to other airports

Cebu Pacific said its passengers can re-route the flights to Clark, Hong Kong or Cebu via Manila. It added that passengers may opt to place the full cost of the ticket in a travel fund.

Air Asia, on the other hand, said its passengers can retain the value of their fare in their AirAsia BIG Loyalty account for future travel with AirAsia.

“The online credit account is to be redeemed for booking within 90 calendar days from the issuance date for your travel with us. The actual travel dates can be after the expiry date as long as our flight schedule is out;” Air Asia management said.

Meanwhile, according to the Manila International Airport Authority, it is business as usual in Ninoy Aquino International Airport terminals as there was no significant damage to the runways.
