Filipinos will be given priority on flights back to the Philippines.

“All arriving international guests will undergo health tests at the airport or designated facility. They will then be required to be quarantined at approved facilities while waiting for their test results. Guests who obtain a negative test result will be required to undergo 14 days of home quarantine,” AirAsia said.
“Guests are encouraged to pre-register and complete the Electronic-Case Investigation Form (E-CIF) to expedite airport procedures upon arrival,” it added.
