Iloilo/Mandurriao Airport serves Iloilo, PH.
Iloilo/Mandurriao Airport (PH-0283) officially closed on June 14, 2007, at 5:00 AM PST, coinciding with the commissioning of the new Iloilo International Airport in Cabatuan,. The closure was due to outdated facilities, poor passenger comfort, and the airport's location alongside major city thoroughfares, which complicated traffic flow.
Historically, Mandurriao Airport, built in 1937, served as a World War II airfield, captured by Japanese forces in 1942 and recaptured by the US Army in 1945. It was also the site of Pope John Paul II's landing during his 1981 visit to the Philippines.
The 54-hectare former airport site has been redeveloped into the Iloilo Business Park, a mixed-use residential and commercial complex. The Iloilo Convention Center, which hosted the APEC Finance meetings in 2015, now occupies the former site of the airport's passenger terminal. The airport's control tower, which served as a monument to Pope John Paul II, was demolished in 2021.
