                    [Summary] => 



The flood of "balikbayans" coming home to spend Christmas here is stretching the manpower resources and taxing the facilities at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminals 1 and 2, and even the Manila Domestic Airport.


The large number of balikbayans on board international flights from the United States, the Middle East countries, and Southeast Asian nations such as Singapore and Hong Kong has been causing long queues in immigration lanes at the arrival areas of NAIA-1 and 2.
