Airport upgrade


Catarman National Airport is a priority for national appropriation by the Philippine government. Improvement of its terminal building incurred a budgetary allocation of a 15 million-peso[2] appropriation from the national government.[when?]

When Typhoon Nona hit the province of Catarman in 2015, the airport sustained damage. Rehabilitation works were started and the project consists of constructing a new passenger terminal building, taxiway, perimeter fence, expanding the apron, and improvements in the runway. The upgrade works at the airport were completed in August 2021 and was inaugurated on September 2, 2021.[3]


Airport facilities



Terminal building


Prior to the upgrade, the passenger terminal building had a capacity of 50 passengers. After the upgrade, the capacity was increased to 150 passengers and can now accommodate 50,000 passengers annually.[3]


Runway


The airport has a 1,600-meter (5,200 ft) asphalt/concrete runway that runs in a 04/22 direction. During the upgrade, the runway was overlaid with asphalt.[3]


Apron


The airport has two parking bays and can accommodate two De Havilland Canada Dash 8 (formerly Bombardier Q400) turboprops.[4]
