Gateway to the pristine shores of Boracay Island.

Opened
1976
Location
Caticlan, Philippines
Godofredo P. Ramos Airport, commonly known as Caticlan Airport, serves as the primary gateway to the world-famous Boracay Island in the Philippines. It is located in Caticlan, a barangay of Malay in Aklan province, on the island of Panay, just a short boat ride from Boracay. The airport handles a high volume of tourist traffic given Boracay's status as one of Southeast Asia's most popular beach destinations. Its short runway has historically limited operations to smaller turboprop aircraft, though expansion efforts have been undertaken to accommodate jet aircraft and increase capacity. The airport is named after Godofredo P. Ramos, a former governor of Aklan province. It is operated by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) and has undergone several infrastructure upgrades to meet growing passenger demand.
Terminals
The airport has a single small passenger terminal handling both domestic arrivals and departures.
Getting to & from
From the airport, passengers travel by tricycle to the Caticlan jetty port, then take a short bangka (outrigger boat) ferry to Boracay Island.
Airlines here
Major carriers serving the airport include Philippine Airlines, Cebu Pacific, and AirAsia Philippines, offering routes primarily from Manila and Cebu.
Notable facts
  • The airport's runway is approximately 1,800 meters long, restricting operations to smaller aircraft for much of its history.
  • Boracay Island was temporarily closed by the Philippine government from April to October 2018 for environmental rehabilitation, significantly impacting airport traffic.
  • The airport is sometimes referred to simply as Caticlan Airport to distinguish it from Kalibo International Airport, a larger alternative gateway to Boracay.
  • Runway extension and terminal expansion projects have been pursued to allow narrow-body jet operations.
  • The total journey from the airport to Boracay's White Beach takes roughly 30 to 45 minutes including the boat crossing.
