Laguindingan International Airport (LIA), operated by Aboitiz InfraCapital’s Laguindingan Airport Corp since May 2025, is now handling over 300 domestic flights weekly, cementing its potential as the “Golden Gateway to Mindanao.”
Based on May 2025 data, LIA, Mindanao’s second-busiest after Davao City’s Francisco Bangoy International Airport, took in a total of 337 flights per week to the country’s top destinations, namely Manila, Cebu, Iloilo and Davao.
In particular, Cebu is highly accessible via the award-winning Mactan-Cebu International Airport (MCIA), (operated by Aboitiz InfraCapital Cebu Airport Corporation), where travelers can easily fly to 29 local and 13 international destinations.
Travel hub
Access to and from MCIA has vastly improved recently, thanks to landmark initiatives such as Cebu Connect and CEB+.
Cebu Connect is MCIA’s premier transfer service system, designed to facilitate efficient and seamless airport transfers within MCIA, thereby reducing layover time and maximizing comfort and convenience for travelers.
With Cebu Connect, passengers from LIA can now enjoy seamless connections to international destinations via MCIA, bypassing the need to transit through Manila. Reduced connection times make transfers faster and more convenient, positioning MCIA as a strategic hub for both domestic and international travel.
CEB+ supports MCIA’s vision as the country’s “Main Tourism Transfer Gateway” by streamlining airport-to-seaport connectivity. For passengers arriving from LIA, CEB+ offers a seamless transfer experience with a quick 5-minute shuttle from MCIA to Mactan Wharf — enabling immediate boarding to key island destinations across Central Visayas.
