The Department of Transportation (DOTr), together with the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines and the Department of Public Works and Highways, continues to work full time to improve the Tacloban Airport, officially known as Daniel Z. Romualdez Airport.
DOTr Secretary Vince Dizon inspected on Friday the progress of the airport’s new passenger terminal building (PTB) construction, highlighting the DOTr’s commitment to upgrading regional airports across the country.
The construction of the new PTB was 56.48-percent complete as of March 14, 2025, with full completion expected by April 2026.
Once finished, the upgraded terminal will provide air passengers with a more comfortable and efficient travel experience, while enhancing connectivity by accommodating both domestic and international flights, linking Tacloban to other parts of the country and beyond.
