THE AIRPORT in Busuanga, gateway to popular holiday destination Coron, will resume normal operations Monday, June 11, after it was closed beginning late afternoon Friday due to a Skyjet airplane that overshot the runway. Cebu Pacific, in a statement late Saturday, said all Cebgo flights will proceed as scheduled and eight additional flights between Manila and Busuanga will be mounted to serve passengers affected by the weekend closure. The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP), in a separate statement, said members of the Aircraft Accident Investigation and Inquiry board (AAIIB) are already conducting a probe on the incident. The Busuanga airport, formally named Francisco B. Reyes Airport, handles at least 16 domestic flights daily by, aside from Skyjet and Cebgo, Philippine Airlines Express and Air Juan.
