An information desk will be set up at the airport where host country Protocol Officers (PO) will meet the arriving participants.  The PO will lead the participants to the vehicle waiting just outside the arrival area. We will also have a protocol officer who will accompany the participants to Clark.  If the waiting time for the schedule of the next trip is long, the participants have the option to wait in a designated place inside the airport where he or she will be accompanied by the assigned PO. But they can also wait inside the vehicle. Expected travel time from Manila airport to the venue is 3-4 hours.

To facilitate the schedule of trip to Clark, flight details of participants are kindly requested to be communicated to the host country in advance or posted in the online registration.

Can I take a taxi from the Manila Airport to Clark?

Yes, the host country will provide regular shuttle services from the different venues to various hotels within the Clark Freeport Zone.
