Bicol International Airport (IATA: DRP, ICAO: RPLK), also referred by some sources as Southern Luzon International Airport, is an airport serving the vicinity of Legazpi, the capital city of Albay and the regional center of Bicol Region, in the Philippines.
Dubbed as the Philippines' "Most Scenic Gateway",[2] the airport is located in Daraga, an adjacent municipality of Legazpi. The ₱4.7 billion project is on a 200-hectare (490-acre) plateau 15 kilometers (9.3 mi) from Mayon Volcano. It replaced the old Legazpi Airport, which is only 2 to 3 kilometers (1.2 to 1.9 mi) from the BIA.[3]
First planned in 1996 with initial construction beginning in 2008, the construction was repeatedly delayed until the airport was inaugurated on October 7, 2021. It is expected to handle an estimated 2.2 million passengers every year.[3] While the airport is billed as an international airport, it is classified as Class 1 principal domestic airport by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines.[4]
