In order to address the continuing increase in the number of air passengers, the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) decided to construct a new terminal facility within the vicinity of the present Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA).
This resulted in NAIA Terminal 2 which began operations in 1999. Originally envisioned as a domestic hub, the terminal now houses both the international and domestic operations of the country’s flag carrier, Philippine Airlines. The second terminal, NAIA-2, located at the Old MIA Road and was finished in 1998 and began operations in 1999. It has been named Centennial Terminal in commemoration of the centennial year of the declaration of Philippine independence. The 75,000 square meter terminal was originally designed by Aéroports de Paris to be a domestic terminal, but the design was later modified to accommodate international flights. It has a capacity of 2.5 million passengers per year in its international wing and 5 million in its domestic wing, which later will expand to nine million passengers yearly. Terminal 2 is the home of Philippine Airlines and is used for both its domestic and international flights. It has the most flights out of all the NAIA terminals. This terminal is used by Philippine Airlines and its sister company Air Philippines It is divided into 2 wings the North Wing which handles international flights and the South Wing which handles domestic flights. It currently has 12 aerobridges. The need for two more terminals was proposed by a Master Plan Review of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport that was undertaken
