Arriving Balikbayans at NAIA
Since the implementation of the immigration eGates for returning Filipinos, the Philippine passport queue and NAIA T3 is virtually zero while the Foreign passport queue looks to be around 30 mins. Foreigners arriving in the company of their Filipino spouse and intending to avail the Balikbayan privilege (free visa exemption for 1 year), who I have in the past advised to use whichever queue looks quicker, should now definitely head for the Philippine passport queue with their spouse.
