A Cebgo ATR 72-600 (RP-C7283) arriving from Naga City was involved in an incident at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Manila on Tuesday morning.

In an advisory, Cebu Pacific said it is aware of the incident involving flight DG-6112 bound for Manila, which occurred around 11:45 AM (UTC+8).

“All 42 passengers and four crew deplaned normally and are safe with no reported injuries. The passengers are being looked after and cared for,” the airline said.

The aircraft landed via Manila’s Runway 06/24. The incident resulted in the temporary closure of the main runway, which prompted the diversion of several arriving flights in Manila.
