Bantayan Airport is an aerodrome serving Bantayan Island in the province of Cebu in the Philippines. The airport is located in the municipality of Santa Fe, approximately 3.9 nmi (7.2 km; 4.5 mi) from the centre of Bantayan municipality. It is classified as a community airport by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP). Since the beginning of 2018 the management of the airport has move from CAAP to Mactan Cebu International Airport Authority (MCIAA).
Structure
Bantayan Airport is a small community airstrip with a paved runway but no services (no fuel). The largest handling capacity is something like a Dash‑7. The concrete runway is approximately 900 m (2,950 ft) long and 40 m (140 ft) wide, as well as a small terminal. The terminal shed was erected in 2003, along with two security fences and the airport gate, as part of an airport improvement program initiated by the CAAP.[2]
Salient dates
As of June 2013[update] there is doubt about the future of the airport. CAAP wishes to cease funding it.[3] However President Aquino, who flew into Bantayan airport for his first island visit in February 2014,[4] is interested in the development of the airport.[5]
In October 2015 meanwhile, a private entrepreneur tried to appropriate it.[6]
In February 2015[update] it was reported that initial work was under way on the construction project to build new airports at Bantayan and Camotes.[7][8] The initial project phase is to determine a suitable location for the new airport, implying that it may be at an entirely different location on the island.[9]
From mid-November 2017[update] CAAP stopped operation of Bantayan airstrip, due to the airport's dilapidated state.[10]
In January 2018[update] the authority to manage the airport in Bantayan Island transferred from the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) to the Mactan Cebu International Airport Authority (MCIAA).[11]
