Which has enabled the partial operation of computer systems for airlines and immigration to process inbound and outbound passengers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The authority stated that it is investigating the cause of the power outage, which began at 1:05 am local time. The incident occurred on a public holiday in the Philippines when many people were expected to fly back to Manila after a long weekend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Terminal 3, which serves both international and domestic flights, had already canceled 40 domestic flights due to the power outage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Southeast Asian country experienced a similar incident four months ago. When a power failure caused the country&#8217;s airspace to be closed on New Year&#8217;s Day. This affected about 600 flights and left approximately 65,000 passengers stranded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a tweet, the communications office of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said that Marcos has instructed Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista to restore power. Assist affected passengers at the affected airport terminal &#8220;as soon as possible.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marcos is on an official US visit and is scheduled to meet with President Joe Biden at the White House on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">CEBU PACIFIC ADVISORY #2\u00a0<br>CANCELLED FLIGHTS DUE TO POWER OUTAGE AT NAIA T3\u00a0<br>MAY 1, 2023, 8:30\u00a0AM <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/YAMwhznoTG\">pic.twitter.com\/YAMwhznoTG<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Cebu Pacific Air (@CebuPacificAir) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CebuPacificAir\/status\/1652862615616647169?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 1, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Airlines Advisories<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cebu Pacific Air has advised passengers of possible flight disruptions and cancellations.
