Looking ahead to 2050, the airport is envisioned to expand to 27 aircraft parking positions, with an annual capacity of 7 million passengers and 15,000 tons of cargo.
Once operational, the airport will significantly reduce travel time from major hubs such as Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and Da Nang, as well as other domestic tourist destinations...
Post-2030, all scheduled international flights to and from Tan Son Nhat international airport in Ho Chi Minh City are expected to operate exclusively out of Long Thanh International Airport.
The formulation of the master plan is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2026. This timeline does not include the period required for appraisal and official approval as mandated by regulations.
