HISTORY
It started operations in the mid 1960’s as the replacement of the Lahug Airport, which was situated within Cebu City and had no more room for expansion due to safety and physical constraints. It was then expanded and further developed to truly deserve to its name – Mactan (Cebu) International Airport.
Due to the steady increase of traffic and passenger volume and the introduction of wider bodied aircrafts coupled with the emergence of modern aviation technology, some airport facilities have become obsolete and inadequate. This gave rise to the conception and materialization of the Mactan (Cebu) International Airport Development Project (MIADP) funded by JBIC, which provided the following:
| Airfield Facilities |
Terminal Facilities |
Utilities |
Runway Extension |
Passenger Terminal Building and Facilities |
