This is according to Manila International Airport Authority general manager Ed Monreal, who spoke during Wednesday’s hearing conducted by the Senate committee on public services on the incident.
According to Monreal, the figure represents the cost of removing Xiamen Air flight MF8667 from Runway 06/24.
