[edit] Manila-Clark vs "Angeles City"

Clark Airbase first and foremost serves Manila, which is obvious from the airlines that fly there [1] [2]. What justification do you have for claiming that Angeles (pop. 250k) could possibly overshadow Manila (pop. 10+ million), and why not then agitate for Narita International Airport to be moved to serve Narita, Chiba instead?

While the airlines' basis is that they serve Manila first (on the basis of cheaper landing fees), the Philippine government officially does not recognize Clark as an airport serving Manila. The ATO classifies Philippine airports based on both the type of airport and the geographic location of the airport. To them, Clark is too far from Manila to be Manila's international airport. --Sky Harbor 05:43, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
