The launch of an additional Van Don–Ho Chi Minh City route in June has not only expanded travel options for passengers but also elevated the role of Van Don International Airport. Alongside network expansion, comprehensive investment in infrastructure and technical aviation services are underway to meet development requirements in the new period.
Under the airport’s flight network expansion plan, domestic routes connecting Van Don with Cam Ranh and Phu Quoc, as well as international charter flights to China, Japan and Russia, are scheduled to be introduced. This will accommodate risingtravel demand while laying the groundwork for the airport to diversify its functions in line with its orientation towards becoming a multifunctional aviation hub.
Initially positioned as a gateway airport serving tourism, Van Don International Airport is gradually being oriented towards becoming a multifunctional aviation hub through a multi-hundred-million-dollar investment in an aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul complex and plans to increase terminal capacity. Integrate passenger and cargo transport, logistics and the aviation industry, the airport is set to positionVan Don and Quang Ninh as an important aviation and logistics growth pole in northern Vietnam.
