A Singapore bound Southeast Asian Airbus 320-200, cn5228 (RP-C5319) plane doing flight DG8802 overshot Kalibo Airport and skidded of its runway 05 after preparing for take-off.
Aklan International Airport manager Percy Malonesio said the incident occurred around 8:05 a.m. as the plane was about to depart for Singapore. The Runway end incursion effectively close Kalibo airport from both landing and take-off.
All Passengers were safe and were taken back to the terminal said Malonesio.
Kalibo Airport was re-opened by CAAP at 3:00pm.
