ICAO International Standard Airports In The Philippines

13 February 2026 

There are fourteen commercial airports in the country that meet the required international airport standards according to airside and landside requirements of Annex 14 of the Chicago Convention, the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) said Thursday. The rest of the airports are within the minimum standards set by CAAP for commercial jet airport operations in the country.

Transportation Secretary Giovanni Lopez in a Memorandum to CAAP has ordered that all non-international standard commercial airports across the country must have a minimum runway length of 2,100 meters to accommodate jet aircraft operations, except those with topographical constraints.

The initiative aligns with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s directive to make domestic travel more affordable and to encourage tourism in the country’s top destinations.
