-
Named After a Hero: The airport honors Dr. Gerungan Saul Samuel Jacob Ratulangi (Sam Ratulangi), a famous teacher, journalist, and independence hero from North Sulawesi.
-
World-Class Diving Gateway: MDC is the primary arrival hub for international and local scuba divers traveling to the world-renowned Bunaken National Marine Park, Lembeh Strait, and Likupang.
