List: Airport Projects Completed Over the Past 6 Years

Airports play a vital role in transportation and tourism in the Philippines, especially because the country is an archipelago and full of alluring destinations. And so,  we delight in each and every completed airport project.

Over the last 6 six years, the Department of Transportation (DOTr), together with the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAP), Mactan-Cebu International Airport Authority (MCIAA), and the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA), has completed 250 aviation and airport projects.

The completed projects include:

• New passenger terminal of the Clark International Airport
• New and world-class Bicol International Airport
• Mactan-Cebu International Airport
• Bohol-Panglao International Airport
• Puerto Princes International Airport
• Zamboanga International Airport
• Catarman Airport
• Calbayog Airport
• Siquijor Airport
• General Santos Airport
• Ormoc Airport
• Virac Airport
• Camiguin Airport
• Butuan Airport
• Developments at the NAIA
• Vigan Airport
• Surigao Airport
• Siargao Airport
• Davao International Airport

Other notable projects for the country’s aviation and airports include the establishment of Communications, Navigation, Surveillance/Air Traffic Management (CNS/ATM), and night-rating of 23 commercial airports so as to increase the operational efficiency of airports and reduce daytime flight congestion.

DOTr, under the Duterte Administration was also able to resolve the “Laglag-Bala” and “Bukas Bagahe” issues in airports. More importantly, NAIA is no longer included in the “world’s worst airports.” In fact, NAIA is now recognized as one of the world’s “most improved” airports.
