Wazzup Pilipinas!
 
The Department of Transportation - Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (DOTr-CAAP) welcomes the result of ‎‎2016-2017 Official Aviation Guide (OAG), On-Time Performance (OTP) Star Ratings for airlines and airports, with the country’s Iloilo International Airport landing 14th place with a star rating, besting Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Seoul Incheon International Airport and Hongkong International Airport in rankings.

Out of the 79 airports [with 36 airports operating commercial flights] managed by CAAP all over the country, other Philippine airports that earned star ratings on OTP are NAIA, Bacolod, Davao, Tacloban, Laguindingan (CDO), Kalibo and Puerto Princesa.

The OTP star rating is designed to benchmark against set criteria, defined by industry and flight status information experts. OTP is measured across the whole year based on 12 months’ rolling performance.

To achieve an OTP star rating, the world’s airlines and airports must meet two criteria: all airlines and airports must have a minimum of 600 operations a month (minimum of 2.5 million departed seats) and OAG must receive flight status information for no less than 80 percent of scheduled flights within a 12-month period.

The OAG is an air travel intelligence company based in United Kingdom. It provides digital information and applications to the world's airlines, airports, government agencies and travel-related service companies. OAG is best known for its airline schedules database which holds future and historical flight details for more than 900 airlines and over 4,000 airports.
