A new terminal of 20 million passengers will be built in the south of Tan Son Nhat Airport, with an estimated investment capital of around $791 million.
Amid controversy over the expansion of Tan Son Nhat Airport, the Ministry of Transport announced to decide and submit the chosen plan to the Prime Minister in March 2018.
Airports Corporation of Vietnam (ACV) will allocate more than VND 6,000 billion (US$264 million) to upgrade Vietnam airports in 2017.
Many people have argued that a golf course located next to Tan Son Nhat Airport in HCM City should be closed for airport expansion, but this obvious decision seems to be hard to achieve.
The HCM City People’s Committee has notified the Ministry of Construction that it agrees with the ministry’s master plan to boost capacity by up to 40 per cent at Tân Sơn Nhất Airport.
