Automated parking system goes online at NAIA

Travelers who wish to park at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport will now be able to park faster after New NAIA Infra Corp. (NNIC) introduced an automated parking system.

The system officially went live at Terminal 3 on March 1, 2025, with expansion to Terminals 1 and 2 set for March 14, 2025. To further enhance efficiency, real-time parking slot displays will be installed at Terminal 3 by April and at Terminals 1 and 2 by May of this year. This will allow drivers to check available spaces in real time.

Currently, only cash payments are accepted. However, starting March 14, 2025, the system will support multiple payment options, including GCash, PayMaya, debit, and credit cards for greater convenience.

With the new system, drivers will enter through unmanned entrances, receive an automated ticket, and exit using a QR code-based system. NNIC says this will significantly reduce waiting times and improve overall traffic flow.

By July 2025, autopay stations will be operational across all terminals, further speeding up transactions.
