Mactan-Cebu International Airport

The Mactan-Cebu International Airport, located in Lapu-Lapu City, serves as the international gateway to Cebu and other destinations in the Visayas. Terminal 2, which opened in July 2018, is known for its unique design. Its large, curved wooden roof made from glued-laminated timber was inspired by the waves of the sea surrounding Cebu. The use of wood, glass, and natural light gives the terminal a warm and relaxing atmosphere. Its design also reflects Filipino culture and Cebu’s identity as a tropical island destination.

 

A joint stamp issue to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the diplomatic relations between Morocco and the Philippines was released on April 25, 2025. The Terminal 2 of the Mactan-Cebu International Airport appears on the 23-piso stamp to represent the Philippines.

 

Marrakech-Menara Airport

Marrakech-Menara Airport, located six kilometers from Marrakech, is Morocco's second-busiest international gateway. One of its most impressive feature is its modern architecture. The terminal combines contemporary design with traditional Moroccan patterns and geometric decorations. Its design reflects the country’s rich cultural heritage while providing modern facilities for travelers.
