Regional role cue
SFS is a converted Cubi Point naval-air-station airport in the Subic Bay Freeport Zone, not a normal city-center passenger airport.
Accepted from the airport reference trail as a role-specific cue for SFS; not treated as a live service guarantee.
Surface access cue
Naval Air Station Cubi Point was a United States Navy aerial facility located at the edge of Naval Base Subic Bay and abutting the Bataan Peninsula in the Philippines.
Kept as traveler context from the source trail; current road, rail, and bus operations still need official confirmation.
Name or history cue
The airport moved from U.S. Navy Cubi Point history into a commercial international-airport role after the U.S. withdrawal from Subic.
Retained because history, naming, or opening context helps distinguish this airport from same-shaped airport pages.

Subic Bay International Airport / Naval Air Station Cubi Point is a near sea-level field at 64 ft (20 m), positioned at 14.7948° N, 120.2719° E in the Northern tropics. The runway snapshot lists 1 runway and a longest runway of 9,003 ft / 2,744 m. The airport clock uses Asia/Manila (PHT, UTC+08:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.
Olongapo is the closest retained city-time anchor at 4.0 km. CRK Mabalacat is the closest retained airport alternative at 53 km.
SFS is compared with CRK Mabalacat at 53 km, MNL Manila (Pasay) at 87 km, DVO Davao at 1035 km inside the retained Philippines airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.
SFS-MNL Manila (Pasay): 87 km, about 57m, +0h. SFS-KHH Kaohsiung (Xiaogang): 865 km, about 1h 56m, +0h. These are distance and timezone references, not live flight availability claims.
OurAirports ident RPLB backs the stable code, coordinate, elevation, and timezone record. No official airport website passed the current airport-facts snapshot. en.wikipedia.org is used only as supporting reference context. Snapshot date: 2026-05-25.

SFS (RPLB) is one of the curated airport pages with a real traffic signal attached: 6 million passengers annual terminal capacity, operating from a near sea-level field at 64 ft (20 m).
SFS also has a clear airline-network role: the source summary describes it as subic bay freeport airport with naval-air-station history, a single retained runway, and former logistics-hub context..
SFS's runway record lists 1 runway, with the longest runway at 9,003 ft / 2,744 m and source surfaces recorded as asphalt.
Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority is the clearest operator or management signal we currently have on file for SFS.
These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at Naval Air Station Cubi Point, then blend that with local timezone, route, and city-access data already on this page.
These are the specific situations where this airport page earns its keep: time-zone conversion, city transfer planning, nearby airport backup logic, and source-confidence checks before acting.
SFS uses Asia/Manila (PHT, UTC+08:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.
Subic Bay International Airport / Naval Air Station Cubi Point is about 85 km from central Olongapo; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.
CRK Mabalacat is the closest retained alternate at 53 km, time difference +0h.
The accepted airport reference came from en.wikipedia.org; live schedules, gates, routes, terminals, and NOTAM-sensitive operations still need official airport or airline verification.
These comparisons place SFS inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.
SFS ranks #4 in the curated Philippines airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 4 airports.
SFS shares Asia/Manila with CRK Mabalacat PH · DVO Davao PH · MNL Manila (Pasay) PH. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.
