MANILA – At least two airports operated by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) sustained "very minimal" damage due to Typhoon Neneng and normal operations continue, an official said Monday.
Baguio Airport sustained minor damage on the administration building roof due to fallen branches of a pine tree, while Lingayen Airport's ramp was flooded, CAAP spokesperson Eric Apolonio said.
He said heavy rains caused the flooding but it immediately subsided. Damage at the two airports are "very minimal," and so normal operations continued, he said.
CAAP Area 1 manager Ronald Estabillo said airports in Laoag, Vigan, Baguio, and Rosales, Pangasinan have been experiencing light to moderate rains and winds until Monday.
No other damage in the buildings and facilities of those airports was recorded.
The other airports located in areas affected by the typhoon are also on normal operations. No damage to property was logged in airports in Basco, Cauaya, Bagabag and Palananan.
Tuguegarao Airport experienced rains on Sunday night, but sustained no damage to facilities and equipment.
Typhoon Neneng exited the Philippine Area of Responsibility on Sunday night.
The typhoon was last tracked 495 km. west of Laoag City, Ilocos Norte. (PNA)
