According to DOTr, they welcome the free shuttle rides and consider it a big support to passengers arriving NAIA.

“Malaking bagay itong Libreng Sakay mula sa Grab para sa ating mga pasahero upang agaran silang makauwi sa kani-kanilang mga tahanan. Nagpapasalamat tayo sa Grab sa inisyatibong ito na malaking tulong sa ating mga kababayan,” Transportation Secretary Art Tugade said in a stement.

The department expressed gratitude to Grab as they see the move as an augmentation to DOTr and Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB)’s Libreng Sakay Program.

As part of the program, DOTr is implementing free rides for MRT-3 passengers until July 30 from 4:40am – 1:10pm. The program started last March 28 and was extended to help commuters.
