Sanga-Sanga Airport (TWT), Barangay Sanga-Sanga, Bongao, Tawi-Tawi 7500, Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM), Philippines
Tawitawi Airport (IATA: TWT), serving the provincial capital around Bongao in the Sulu Archipelago, was established in the 1960s and operates from a single modest terminal and runway that handle mainly domestic flights. As the main air gateway to TawiâTawi, the airport is small but vital for connections to Zamboanga and other Mindanao hubs, with short road or boat transfers linking it to Bongao town and nearby islands; local tricycles and shuttle vans are common for lastâmile travel. Generally considered budgetâfriendly compared with larger Philippine airports, TWT is regularly served by carriers such as PAL Express and Cebu Pacific rather than acting as a major airline hub.

Cash is king in TawiâTawiâthereâs no currency exchange in the terminal and only one ATM by arrivals, which can run dry at peak times. Get pesos in Bongao town or before you fly; rates are better and fees lower than relying on the airport machine.
Small and domestic-only, Tawi-Tawiâs terminal doesnât have duty-free, so plan your shopping at your Manila or Cebu connection. Duty Free Philippines outlets by the gates and in arrivals stock liquor, beauty, and chocolates at often-better-than-mall prices, and they run from the first international departure to the last arrival.
Small and straightforward, TawiâTawiâs terminal offers a couple of snack counters and a coffee kiosk inside, plus a few carinderias just outside for sitâdown rice plates and Tausug sweets. Prices are modestâcoffee from about PHP 70 inside and PHP 30 outsideâand only a bit higher than in Bongao town.
First-aid help is on hand at TawiâTawiâs compact terminal during flight hours, and staff can coordinate an ambulance or direct you to nearby care if needed. For full pharmacy needs, head to Bongaoâs drugstores 10â20 minutes away; first aid is typically free, while medications and tests are paid.
No lockers operate at TawiâTawiâs compact airport; instead, nearby Bongao hotels or guesthouses will hold bags for a modest fee with a quick ID check. Expect daytime pickup and storage for suitcases, carryâons, and soft oversize gear.
Settle into a relaxed, no-fuss setup: a small landside seating area and one airside hall serve all flights, with seats, a few outlets, and snacks nearby. Thereâs no full-service lounge, but quiet corners and short waits make it easy to rest before or after your island hop.
