Tropical Depression Inday has caused widespread disruption to Philippine maritime and air travel, leaving hundreds of passengers stranded across multiple provinces as authorities implement safety suspensions.

The impact of the weather disturbance remains concentrated in regions where sea conditions have reached dangerous levels for small vessels. The PCG confirmed that operations remain suspended in several key areas to prevent maritime accidents.
In Romblon, local authorities have kept five ports closed to all sea travel, citing rough seas that pose a significant risk to ferry safety.
