The Mactan-Cebu International Airport Authority (MCIAA) has issued a warning to the public ahead of Asean meetings, urging caution with drones, kites, and lasers near the airport. The advisory comes as the region prepares for key diplomatic gatherings.

The MCIAA emphasized that flying drones, kites, or balloons near the airport could interfere with aircraft operations. It also warned against pointing lasers at planes, which can pose a serious safety risk. These measures are part of heightened security protocols in response to the upcoming Asean meetings.

The Asean meetings, scheduled to take place in Cebu, are expected to bring together leaders and officials from across the Association of Southeast Asian Nations. The heightened security reflects the importance of the event and the need to ensure safe airspace during the summit. The MCIAA has been working closely with local authorities to enforce these rules and prevent any disruptions.
