Francisco B. Reyes Airport serves Palawan’s main gateway with a small terminal and simple facilities. The airport handles domestic flights from Manila, Cebu and other local cities bringing travelers close to the island’s beaches and mountains. Its location near Puerto Princesa makes it easy for visitors to start exploring nature reserves, lagoons and coastal towns. The site has limited shops or dining options inside, but buses and taxis are available right outside for onward journeys. It remains a practical starting point for trips around Palawan’s natural attractions.
