๐ข Terminal Information
Dilasag Airport (DSG, reference code PH-0573) serves the remote northernmost municipality of Dilasag in Aurora Province, Philippines, positioned at 60 feet elevation along the Pacific coast in one of the province's most isolated and least developed areas. The airport operates as a small coastal airstrip providing essential aviation access to this pristine white-sand beach community that remains largely untouched by mass tourism and modern infrastructure development.
The facility features basic airstrip infrastructure without navigational aids, operating primarily for emergency services, government flights, and occasional charter operations serving the municipality's approximately 16,000 residents who have limited road access due to the town's remote Pacific coastline location. Unlike other Aurora Province municipalities, Dilasag relies on independent power generation rather than regional grid connections, highlighting its isolation and the airport's importance as a transportation lifeline.
Operational considerations include potentially seasonal access restrictions, advance coordination requirements for landing permissions, and limited ground services typical of remote Philippine provincial airstrips. The airport serves as a crucial link for Dilasag's fishing communities, agricultural producers, and eco-tourism operations showcasing the area's unspoiled natural beauty, pristine beaches, and traditional Filipino coastal lifestyle preserved by the town's geographic isolation from major transportation corridors.

๐ข Terminal Information
Loakan Airport (BAG) serves Baguio City, famously known as the 'Summer Capital' of the Philippines, nestled in the Cordillera Central mountain range of Luzon. This regional airport is a crucial air link for the high-altitude city, primarily handling domestic flights that connect to Manila, often operated by Philippine Airlines. Due to its challenging location and operational constraints, including a relatively short runway and frequent fog, commercial service can be limited. The terminal building is a small, functional structure, providing essential services for the moderate volume of passengers.\n\nSecurity procedures at BAG are in line with Philippine aviation regulations. Passengers can expect efficient processing through security checkpoints, which include baggage screening and personal checks. Given the airport's size and flight volume, check-in and security processes are generally quick. Boarding is conducted by walking directly to the aircraft on the apron, as there are no jet bridges. Due to its high elevation and the mountain weather patterns, fog often rolls in during the afternoon, and turbulence can be experienced, leading to potential delays or cancellations. It is advisable to arrive with ample time for check-in and to reconfirm flight statuses, especially during the rainy season.\n\nAmenities within the terminal are limited but cater to basic needs. There is usually a small waiting area with seating and restrooms. Travelers might find a small kiosk offering beverages and light snacks, but extensive dining or retail options are not available. For ground transportation, taxis are typically available outside the terminal, providing convenient connections to Baguio City center. The airport serves as an efficient gateway for exploring the cooler climate and scenic beauty of the Cordillera region.
