Airport, seaport and connections in Subic Bay
The Subic Bay Freeport Zone is served by the container terminals of Subic Bay, operated by Subic Bay International Terminals, which handle FCL cargo for Central and Northern Luzon. For air freight, the nearest major airport is Clark International Airport (CRK), reached via the Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway, while Ninoy Aquino International Airport (MNL) is the main alternative. Subic Bay's own airport plays little role in commercial cargo today.
The Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX) connects Subic with Clark and Tarlac, and the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) continues to Metro Manila. The Subic Freeport Expressway links the freeport with NLEX. We arrange pick-up and delivery across the Subic Bay Freeport Zone and Zambales.
