With the launch of DITO’s free Wi-Fi at Clark International Airport, passengers can experience secure, seamless, and optimized use of fast internet access, letting them stay connected, stream content, and work efficiently before boarding their flights. This connectivity supports the airport's mission to provide domestic and international passengers with a globally competitive travel experience.
