Loakan Airport (IATA: BAG, ICAO: RPUB) is an airport in Baguio, Philippines. It serves the general area. It is classified as a Class 2 principal (minor domestic) airport by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP). Loakan Airport, the city's only airport, was built in 1934. Its short runway, frequent low visibility, and deep ravines at both ends of the runway continue to challenge pilots greatly, especially when it comes to landing.
About its operation, the airport is currently closed for commercial operations but is still used by military and private aircraft. Plans to revive the airport have been announced by numerous entities over the years. As of January 2021, the City Government claims that the airport is now ready to receive commercial flights after it has completed the initial steps outlined by the CAAP to address the safety issues for commercial aircraft.
