The Sicogon Island Airport in the town of Carles, Iloilo reopened for commercial flights on Dec. 16.
The flights from Manila to the island and vice versa are scheduled every Monday and Friday via AirSWIFT Airlines.
The boutique airline said its flight departs from Manila at 5:55 a.m. and from Sicogon at 8 a.m. A round-trip ticket costs P9,000.
Ayala Land constructed a 1.3-kilometer runway and airport facility as part of its redevelopment of the 1,100-hectare island.
The redevelopment project aims to make Sicogon a premier tourist destination and a tourism hub for Western Visayas.
Ayala already opened Huni Sicugon and Balay Kogon on the island.
Huni Sicogon is a 2-storey, 52-key boutique resort. Its beachfront location gives panoramic views of the seaside and of nearby Mt. Opao.
Balay Kogon, meanwhile, is a boutique bed-and-breakfast accommodation along the pristine Buaya Beach.IMT
