The People’s Committee of northern Ninh Binh province has submitted a feasibility study to the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Construction seeking approval to the Ninh Binh International Airport project.
Under the proposal, the projected airport would span approximately 720 hectares in Liem Tuyen Ward and be developed to meet ICAO 4E standards, while also serving as a level I military airport.
The plan includes two parallel runways capable of accommodating modern wide-body aircraft of Code E and equivalent.
The projected airport is designed to handle an initial capacity of 5 million passengers annually by 2030, increasing to 10 million per year by 2050.
Total investment is estimated at VND23.216 trillion ($882 million), with 45.25% expected to come from the State budget and the remainder mobilized from the project investor.
If approved, construction would begin in 2027 and be completed by 2029.
