Palau's just the first international service for Asian Spirit, however they are also studying the possibilities of opening flights to Yap and Chuuk, also near Palau.....

Interesting question. But I guess it's owned by the government.

Is there an airport authority in Davao already?

ive went to dava0 last month and i would say that the new terminal is very good indeed the only problem is its difficult get a taxi at the arrival area as drivers usually charge much and dont agree on flag down rates, and there no shuttle bus or transport to get u to the main road highway where u can catch a bus or taxi without having to aurgue with the driver, i hope the airport authority would try to make an agreement with taxi operators in the city to service arriving passengers with flag down meter plzzz

I think Davao is one of the airports that will be consolidated to run under MIAA. Centralizing all major airports in the country under MIA management.

we still dont know when they would build the taxiway. but it is in the masterplan.

Cathay Pacific stated that they would fly to davao when the taxiway is built and operational already. They said that they didnt want their aicraft executing a full turn at the end of the runway because it would give undue stress to their fron landing gears.

Dragon Air could instead operate the Davao - Hong Kong service. Dragon Air operates A320 aircraft which for sure could easily make a 360 degree turn...

I don't think it would be a good idea to place all major airports under MIA management...

pwede naman eh. but the problem is where do they get the income to operate the airports. as it is, the income generated by the davao airport is just enough to sustain it and pay its loan.

I just read it somewhere. I think it's even in this thread. Putting it all under one management wouldn't be too bad . It would help specially if they plan to privatize it in the future.
