The Philippine Ports Authority (PPA) suspends several ferry trips in parts of Leyte and Palawan due to rough to very rough seas triggered by Tropical Storm (TS) Maymay and the southwest monsoon (habagat). In public advisories issued around 8 a.m., the PPA cancels specific trips and routes, including ferry services managed through Western Leyte–Biliran and Palawan port operations, as well as other port management office areas noted in its updated listings. The disruptions cover ferry movements tied to these regional ports rather than an island-wide shutdown.
Separately, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa) issues maritime-related weather guidance, including a gale warning over the western seaboard of Northern Luzon, indicating rough to very rough sea conditions. Together, the weather advisories and the PPA’s operational announcements guide the suspension of affected ferry services as conditions at sea remain unsafe. Updates are reflected in the PPA’s morning notices for each day’s cancellations.
