Tagbilaran Airport (Cebuano: Tugpahanan sa Tagbilaran, Tagalog: Paliparan ng Tagbilaran) (IATA: TAG, ICAO: RPVT) is a Principal Class 1 airport serving the general area of Tagbilaran, the capital city of the province of Bohol in the Philippines. The airport will be closing for scheduled passenger services at the end of August 2018, being replaced by Panglao Island International Airport.

The 2013 Bohol earthquake caused damage including the collapse of a ceiling in the control tower. Operations were suspended for three hours but later resumed.[3]

On October 2018, the Tagbilaran Airport will close but a new international airport 'Bohol airport' will be complete and be replaced.
