Tan Son Nhat Airport capacity to rise to 45m passengersVietNamNet Bridge – Authorities have proposed an expansion plan for HCM City’s Tan Son Nhat Airport that will enable it to handle 45 million passengers a year. An aircraft of Vietnam Airlines - the flag carrier of Viet Nam - lands at Tan Son Nhat International Airport in HCM City. The Ministry of Defence has already pitched in by moving all military training operations from Tan Son Nhat Airport to Bien Hoa Airport in the neighbouring province of Dong Nai. It means that Tan Son Nhat Airport can resolve its overloading problem in three years’ time. After Long Thanh International Airport opens in neighbouring Dong Nai Province, Tan Son Nhat will only be used for domestic and regional flights.
