The Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) has suspended the implementation of surge pricing cap on Transportation Network Vehicle Service (TNVS).

The implementation of the surge was suspended due to the letter received by the LTFRB from one transport network asking for a grace period to fix their program and system configuration. 

Surge pricing is the fare increase which occurs when the booking demand is high but few vehicles are available.

This is supposedly effective on December 17, 2025. However, due to the concerns from a transport network, the LTFRB confirmed to reschedule the surge pricing on Saturday, December 20, 2025.

“The new target timeline for implementation of the new adjusted surge pricing is on Saturday.” LTFRB Chair Atty. Mendoza II said.

The surge is effective until January 4, 2026.
