MISAMIS ORIENTAL — In the heart of Mindanao, Laguindingan International Airport (LIA) is undergoing a remarkable transformation, thanks to Aboitiz InfraCapital, Inc. (AIC). This initiative reflects a commitment to enhancing passenger convenience and operational efficiency, showcasing how infrastructure can significantly improve the travel experience. With these enhancements, AIC is not only focusing on aesthetics but also on practical upgrades that cater to the needs of today's travelers.
AIC Vice President and Head of Airports, Rafael M. Aboitiz, emphasized the importance of these upgrades, stating, “We are happy to note that we continue to execute enhancements across AIC Airports, including Laguindingan International Airport.” These improvements are vital during peak travel periods, as they facilitate smoother passenger movement and streamline airport operations. As travelers navigate through the terminal, they will notice clearer pathways and intuitive access to key areas, making their journey more enjoyable.
Comfortable and Inclusive Facilities
One of the standout features of the terminal improvements is the optimized seating arrangement. By rearranging gang chairs, LIA now accommodates more passengers without compromising comfort. This thoughtful redesign supports higher foot traffic and ensures a more orderly environment, making the terminal experience much more pleasant. Travelers can now relax in comfort, knowing that their needs have been considered during the redesign process.
Moreover, AIC has prioritized inclusivity by procuring additional wheelchairs for persons with disabilities and senior citizens. This initiative fosters a more welcoming atmosphere, ensuring that all travelers receive the support they need. Enhanced lighted signages throughout the terminal improve visibility, allowing passengers to navigate with ease. With these upgrades, LIA not only enhances the travel experience but also sets a standard for accessibility and convenience in airport operations.
As AIC continues to develop and modernize LIA, along with Bohol-Panglao International Airport, the future looks bright for travelers in Northern Mindanao. Starting in 2025, the introduction of more modernization projects will further elevate the passenger experience, making Philippine airports globally competitive. For those flying out of LIA, the convenience of direct access to destinations like Siquijor and San Vicente, Palawan, via Mactan-Cebu International Airport, is just one of the many benefits of this evolving infrastructure.
The enhancements at Laguindingan International Airport are a testament to AIC's dedication to improving the travel experience for everyone. With a focus on comfort, accessibility, and operational excellence, LIA is poised to become a gateway that travelers will embrace with enthusiasm.
