MANILA, Philippines – Itinanghal ang Mactan-Cebu International Airport (MCIA) bilang Asia’s Airport of the Year sa 2025 TDM Travel Trade Excellence Awards matapos pababain ang minimum connection time (MCT) nito sa ilan sa pinakamabilis sa rehiyon.
Ayon sa ACAC, ang award ay kumikilala sa CEBConnects facility na nagbaba ng domestic-to-domestic MCT sa 35 minuto at ang ibang transfer time sa 60 minuto.
“By strategically leveraging Cebu’s central geographical location, we are not just speeding up transfers; we are actively supporting the country’s tourism goals by making it easier for travelers to reach other island destinations. With this, the vacation experience actually begins the moment they arrive at MCIA,” ani ACAC CEO Athanasios Titonis.
Ang MCIA, na may 25 airline partners at halos 80% on-time performance, ay nakuha ng Aboitiz InfraCapital noong 2024 matapos bilhin ang stake ng Megawide Construction sa airport sa halagang P7.76 bilyon.
“The improvements driven by CEBConnects are a game-changer for airline operations and customer experience. The real-time benefits in on-time performance that we see enhances the transfer experience of our passengers who now find MCIA a highly competitive and reliable hub for regional travel,” ani MCIAA CEO Julius Neri Jr. RNT
