The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) on Wednesday announced that the Kalibo International Airport (KIA) is set to open new
international flight routes cope with the expected increase in the volume of air passengers.

The airport at present serves international flights to and from Incheon, South Korea by Air Seoul (Wednesday-Thursday-Saturday-Sunday), and T’way Air (daily).

The Kalibo Airport will start accommodating Tiger Air flights from Taipei starting on Dec. 29.

The CAAP said the additional international flights would dramatically boost Philippine tourism.

The new routes will provide travelers greater access to the region and support the growing tourism industry in the area, as tourist hotspot Boracay Island is also located in the province of Aklan where KIA is located.
