As the situation is currently fluid and developing, further changes and other developments are expected in the next few hours or days.

PAL will 'closely monitor' the situation and will provide immediate updates through its social media channels and website at www.philippineairlines.com.

Guests with flights on November 1 and 2 are advised to check their flight statuses through the PAL website before proceeding to the airport.

PAL also said it would take time before normal operations resume, given aircraft are repositioned to other airports as a safety precaution.

"Even after the typhoon recedes and weather improves, it may take some time to restore normal schedules, as we would need to reposition aircraft and undertake other operational adjustments based on the revised slots and clearances at the affected airports, in coordination with the airport and air traffic control authorities."
