Cauayan Airport — Cauayan City, Philippines

Serving Cauayan City in the Philippines, CYZ denotes Cauayan Airport, located in Isabela province within the Cagayan Valley region of northern Luzon. The airport provides domestic connections, chiefly to Manila, for a province that is one of the country's major producers of rice and corn, making CYZ an important gateway for agribusiness travelers, local officials, and residents of the surrounding Cagayan Valley towns. Cauayan itself has grown into a commercial center for the region, and the airport's relatively short but capable runway supports regional turboprop and jet services operated by Philippine carriers. For much of the valley, CYZ offers a faster alternative to the long overland drive to Manila.
