Cibao International Airport (IATA code: STI, ICAO code: MDST), also known as Santiago Airport, is the country's third-busiest airport by passenger traffic and aircraft movements, after Punta Cana International Airport and Las Américas International Airport. It is located in Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic's second-largest city, 15 kilometers (9.3 mi) southeast of Santiago City's center. Since its inauguration, Cibao International has been projected to become one of busiest airports in terms of passenger traffic in the country. Presently it has become the third-busiest airport in the Dominican Republic, only being surpassed by the airports of Punta Cana and Santo Domingo. The airport served more than 970,000 passengers in 2006.
