Ninoy Aquino Avenue is a north-south collector road that links Pasay and Parañaque in southern Metro Manila, Philippines.[1] It serves as an extension of Dr. Santos Avenue (formerly Sucat Road) and as a feeder to the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) from the south and east. Like the airport it passes through, it is named for Filipino senator Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino.

Route description

The road commences at the junction with Victor Medina Street in the border between barangays La Huerta and San Dionisio in Parañaque as a continuation of Dr. Santos Avenue. It travels north toward the old NAIA Terminal 1, passing the Dampa Seafood Market, the former Casino Filipino Airport and the Duty Free Philippines Fiestamall. It then enters Pasay where it is also known by its former name Imelda Avenue, after former Filipina first lady Imelda Marcos. The avenue terminates at the intersection with NAIA Road.
