Location

Kalibo, Philippines

Kalibo International Airport (IATA: KLO, ICAO: RPVK) is a regional airport located in Kalibo, the capital of Aklan Province on the island of Panay in the Western Visayas region of the Philippines. It primarily serves travelers heading to the world-famous resort island of Boracay, which lies roughly 70 kilometers to the north. The airport handles both domestic and international flights, with significant charter and scheduled traffic from East Asian markets, particularly South Korea and China, drawn by Boracay's popularity as a beach destination. It operates as one of two gateways to Boracay, alongside Caticlan/Godofredo P. Ramos Airport, which is geographically closer to the island but has a shorter runway with limitations on aircraft size. Kalibo International Airport is operated under the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) and has undergone infrastructure improvements to accommodate growing passenger volumes linked to Boracay tourism.
