About Cuyo Airport
Cuyo Airport is a small domestic feeder airport serving Cuyo Island and the Cuyo Archipelago in the province of Palawan, Philippines. It provides an essential air link for the municipalities of Cuyo, Magsaysay, and Agutaya, connecting this remote island community to mainland Palawan.
The airport is located in Barangay Lucbuan and Emilod in the town of Magsaysay, on the main island of Cuyo Island. It has a single gravel runway and a modest single-story passenger terminal, and it mainly handles light aircraft and small turboprop services such as Air Juan flights between Puerto Princesa and Cuyo.
Cuyo Airport is roughly 8 km from Cuyo town proper. Ground transport is provided by local tricycles and vans, with the journey to the town centre typically taking about 20 to 30 minutes, and onward ferry and outrigger boat connections available from local piers.
Facilities at the airport are basic, so travelers should bring cash and arrange food or supplies in Cuyo town before flying. Despite its simple infrastructure, the airport remains a lifeline for the archipelago and a convenient entry point for visitors exploring Cuyo's beaches, kitesurfing spots, and heritage sites.
