The Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam (CAAV) has submitted to the Ministry of Construction a proposed development plan for Buon Ma Thuot Airport in the Central Highlands province of Dak Lak for the 2021–2030 period, with a vision to 2050.
Under the plan, the airport will be expanded to serve five million passengers annually by 2030 and handle 10,000 tonnes of cargo each year. By 2050, passenger capacity is expected to rise to seven million per year, while cargo throughput is projected at 15,000 tonnes annually.
During the 2021–2030 period, the existing Terminal 1 (T1) will be upgraded to accommodate two million passengers per year, while a new Terminal 2 (T2) will be constructed with a capacity of three million passengers annually. By 2050, Terminal 2 will be further expanded to increase its capacity to five million passengers per year.
According to the plan, Buon Ma Thuot Airport will be upgraded to ICAO Class 4C standards, enabling it to serve Airbus A320 and A321 aircraft.
