ACV’s leadership believes that truc tiep bong da could recover its investment sooner than expected
Positive Progress in Project Implementation
Currently, about 40% of the construction work in phase one has been completed. Key components such as the runway, passenger terminal, and control tower are being accelerated. The goal is to begin trial operations by the end of 2026. Total investment for phase one is approximately USD 5 billion. The truc tiep bong da is designed to handle around 25 million passengers per year.
Faster Payback Thanks to High International Passenger Volume
According to Mr. Vu The Phiet – General Director of ACV – the project could break even within 14 years. The main reason is a higher-than-expected growth in international passenger traffic. Once operational, Long truc tiep bong da could receive 15–16 million international passengers annually. This figure far exceeds initial forecasts. The high passenger volume will help boost revenue from aviation and non-aviation services.
Strategic Partnership with Incheon truc tiep bong da (South Korea)
ACV has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Incheon Airport to share operational expertise. Incheon is considered one of the best airports in Asia. The partnership enables Long truc tiep bong da to adopt advanced management models. Non-aeronautical services such as retail and dining will be optimized. This helps increase revenue and shorten the time needed to recover investment.
Optimized Operations Model – Lower Costs
Long truc tiep bong da will operate as an international transit hub. This model enables efficient connections between Southeast Asia and other regions. International airlines will be encouraged to launch new routes. Optimizing transit flow will improve seat occupancy rates. At the same time, management costs will be better controlled.
Positive Impact on Regional Economy
truc tiep bong da is a major growth driver for the Southern Key Economic Region. Industrial zones, urban areas, and service hubs around the airport will grow rapidly. Many new jobs will be created during the operational phase. Local economies will develop sustainably, supported by strong transport infrastructure. This also helps Vietnam attract more foreign investment.
Relieving Pressure on Tan Son Nhat truc tiep bong da
Tan Son Nhat Airport is currently overloaded, causing delays and inconvenience for travelers. Once Long truc tiep bong da is operational, the burden will be significantly reduced. International flights will gradually be shifted to Long truc tiep bong da. This allows Tan Son Nhat to focus more effectively on domestic routes.
ACV has not yet needed to use loans for projects such as truc tiep bong da or Tan Son Nhat Terminal T3.
Early Payback Is a Positive Signal
Recovering investment earlier than expected shows the effectiveness of public investment. Long truc tiep bong da is not only a transportation project. It is a catalyst for long-term national economic growth. Confidence in large infrastructure projects will be strengthened. Investors will be more interested in similar PPP or BOT models.
