Tagbilaran Airport (Cebuano: Tugpahanan sa Tagbilaran, Tagalog: Paliparan ng Tagbilaran) (IATA: TAG, ICAO: RPVT) was an international airport serving the general area of Tagbilaran, the capital city of the province of Bohol in the Philippines. The airport was closed for scheduled passenger services on November 27, 2018.
The 2013 Bohol earthquake caused damage including the collapse of a ceiling in the control tower. Operations were suspended for three hours but later resumed.[3]
On November 27, 2018, the airport was closed for scheduled passenger services from 6 PM onwards, being replaced by Bohol–Panglao International Airport.[4]
