The epidemic of new coronaviruses has continued to spread, and many countries have implemented "seizure" measures. The Philippines also announced today (2) that foreigners are prohibited from entering the Mainland, Hong Kong and Macau. Some Hong Kong people took a Philippine AirAsia flight to Manila this morning. After the plane landed, they have not been able to disembark. So far they have been "trapped" in the cabin for more than two hours. He said that there were about 25 Mainlanders and Hong Kong people on board. After the flight attendants took photos of each person's passports, there were no other arrangements. It is unknown what the authorities will do.

At about 4:45, Mr. Chen said that the Philippine authorities would merge the flight with a flight to Macau, and then arrange a tour bus to send everyone back to Hong Kong, but there is no time to arrive.

The cabin crew took pictures of the passengers one by one and provided food

Hong Kong resident Mr. Chen took Philippine Asiana Flight Z2 1265 which departed at 11.50 today to Manila and landed at about 1.45 pm. He said that on average, he went to the Philippines 2 to 3 times a month, and the local customs were unknown before departure today, and there were no special measures before boarding.

Mr. Chen continued, after the passenger plane landed, the cabin crew first let all those with Philippine passports leave. As for the remaining 25 mainlanders and Hong Kong people, the staff took photos of the passports and stayed in their original seats. He said that the staff stated that there was no instruction and they have waited more than two hours, but the other party has provided food.

Mr. Chen believes that the measures in the Philippines have been implemented too quickly and time should be reserved for passengers to respond. He also said that he had entrusted his family to call the Immigration Department's helpline, but the other party stated that he could not provide assistance for the time being.
