Under the new terminal assignments, all PAL international flights will depart from and arrive at Terminal 1. This includes flights to and from Bangkok, Beijing, Brisbane, Busan, Fukuoka, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Jakarta, Jinjiang, Kuala Lumpur, Macau, Melbourne, Nagoya, Osaka, Perth, Port Moresby, Seoul, Shanghai, Sydney, Taipei, and Xiamen.

PAL domestic flights will continue to operate from Terminal 2. However, passengers with connecting flights between international and domestic flights will need to take a shuttle bus between the two terminals.

Passengers are advised to check the flight terminal assigned to their flight before proceeding to the airport. They can do this by visiting the PAL website or by calling the airline's customer service hotline.

Additionally, PAL announced that the following flights will arrive at Terminal 1 on June 15:

• Flight PR 469 from Seoul
