The Airports Corporation of Vietnam (ACV) held a ground-breaking ceremony on October 19 for a project expanding an aircraft apron at the Da Nang International Airport in the central city of Da Nang.
The cost of the first phase of Long Thanh International Airport has been cut by VND2.4 trillion (US$103.5 million) by the State Appraisal Council.
Several experts are concerned that a second airport proposed for Hanoi will be a case of overkill and resultant losses.
Fees for takeoff and landing and aircraft operating services for domestic flights will continue to be cut by 50% for the next six months to support airlines affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a Transport Ministry circular.
