          The country's main gateway, the Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Pasay City is now operating in maximum capacity. Airlines want to begin new services to the airport but the only slots available are at "unholy hours."

          MIAA General Manager Jose Angel Honrado said that some airlines have applied for slots at the airport but couldn't get their preferred slots in the morning or evening.

          Qatar Airways will further expand the capacity of flights to the Philippines in the Winter 2013/2014 season. Qatar Airways currently flies to Manila 3X daily using the Boeing 777-300ER. 

          From October 27, 2013 onwards, all daily Doha to Manila services will be operated by a Boeing 777-300ER instead of both Boeing 777-300ERs and Airbus A330-300s.
