Ho Chi Minh City airport’s new terminal expected to become ‘aviation city’

The under-construction T3 terminal of Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Ho Chi Minh City, which carries a price tag of nearly VND11 trillion (US$448.2 million), will be developed into an ‘aviation city,' said head of the project management board Le Khac Hong. It will help increase the capacity of Tan Son Nhat International Airport to 50 million passengers per year. Contractors have mobilized 1,400 workers, 16 tower cranes, over 350 vehicles, and equipment to the construction site of the T3 terminal of Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Ho Chi Minh City.

However, most equipment at the T3 terminal is imported from Europe, the U.S., and China, while rising tensions in the Red Sea region have delayed the delivery time.
