DOTr summons airlines over P30,000 Siargao fares
The Department of Transportation (DOTr) has called local airlines to a meeting next week to explain why roundtrip tickets to Siargao and other tourist destinations are reaching as high as P30,000. Transportation Secretary Vince Dizon will lead the talks on August 26 with the Association of Air Carriers of the Philippines, alongside officials from the Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) and the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines. 'I want to know why their fares are so expensive. At times, it is cheaper to go to Japan than to Siargao. To Siargao, it costs P25,000 to P30,000,' Dizon said in an interview. The transport chief said the government wants to find ways to make air travel more affordable, especially during the holiday season. He noted that fuel surcharges remain low, with the CAB setting the rate at Level 4 this month, ranging from P117 to P342 for domestic flights and P385.70 to P2,867.82 for international trips. Despite the lower surcharge, Dizon said airfares remain unusually high. In July, the CAB had reduced the surcharge to Level 3, but carriers continued charging higher-than-expected ticket prices. This is not the first time Dizon has flagged excessive airfare. In June, the DOTr fined AirAsia's booking arm, AirAsia Move, P6 million after it was found selling Tacloban flights at around P39,000 per way. The company has since corrected its pricing system.

Abu Dhabi Extends Road Toll Hours and Removes Daily, Monthly Caps
Starting Monday, September 1, Abu Dhabi motorists will face extended toll charges as part of new traffic rules aimed at easing congestion during peak hours, the Integrated Transport Centre (ITC) announced. Drivers will now pay Dh4 when passing through Darb toll gates from 3pm to 7pm, Monday to Saturday, extending the current afternoon charging window by two hours. Morning tolls remain unchanged at 7am to 9am on the same days. The toll gates remain free outside peak hours, on Sundays, and during official holidays. The four gates are located at Sheikh Khalifa Bridge, Sheikh Zayed Bridge, Al Maqta Bridge, and Musaffah Bridge. In addition to extended hours, the government will also remove the existing daily and monthly toll caps. Previously, motorists paid no more than Dh16 per day or Dh200 per month for a first registered vehicle. These limits will be lifted starting September. The ITC confirmed that exemptions will continue for people with disabilities, retirees, senior citizens, and low-income families. Q Mobility, a subsidiary of ADQ, will oversee the updated Darb toll system in coordination with government authorities. The move comes as Abu Dhabi's population surpassed 4.1 million in 2024, up 51 percent in a decade, putting pressure on the emirate's growing road network.
