Now that we’re closer to the Christmas weekend, airports are becoming busier as the number of passengers is increasing. As such, UBE Express released its adjusted NAIA P2P (point-to-point) bus schedule for this coming December 24 and 25.
UBE Express has adjusted its NAIA-Araneta City P2P bus schedule
On December 24, UBE Express will have 16 trips between Araneta City and NAIA (Ninoy Aquino International Airport). The first trip will be at 5:30 a.m., while the last trip will be at 6:00 p.m.
Meanwhile, the modern bus service company will roll out 14 trips the following day. The first and last trips will start later at 9:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m., respectively.
If you are one of the commuters that plan to take a P2P bus on the said dates, plan your trip ahead of time to avoid inconvenience on the road. As we all know, heavy traffic is expected due to the Christmas rush.
