Kalibo Airport is expected to be free of congestion.

Kalibo CAAP o Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines chief Cynthia Aspera said that the Kalibo Airport Expansion Project is estimated to be completed by April 2015.

This is in contrary of her statement last year that the project will be completed by December 2014.

It will be recalled though that Aspera made an appeal to the public regarding the congestion after the PCCI o Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry-Boracay wrote a letter to Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) Secretary “Jun” Abaya.

PCCI stressed that the airport cannot hold the influx of tourists and business travelers.

The project includes passenger terminal buildings, access roads and parking area.

In an interview, Abaya said that airport should undergo expansion to comply with the standards of International Civil Aviation.
