On the morning of May 19, 2026, Da Nang International Terminal Investment and Operation Joint Stock Company (AHT) officially held the groundbreaking ceremony for the Renovation and Expansion of the International Passenger Terminal – Da Nang International Airport, with a total investment of nearly VND 1.5 trillion. The project is located in Hoa Cuong Bac Ward, Da Nang City.

The ceremony was attended by representatives of the Da Nang People’s Committee, AHT as the project owner, Nippon Koei Vietnam Co., Ltd. as the technical consultant, CENTRAL Construction Joint Stock Company as the general contractor, as well as subcontractors, suppliers, and media representatives.

The Renovation and Expansion of the International Passenger Terminal – Da Nang International Airport will be developed on an additional 3,600 m², increasing the terminal’s total operational floor area to more than 21,085 m². The roof of the expanded section has been designed to precisely replicate the architectural profile of the existing terminal, creating the visual impression of a flock of seagulls soaring in unison. Upon completion, Terminal T2 will increase its capacity to accommodate up to 85 check-in counters, add 31 passenger service positions, and feature seven departure gates equipped with passenger boarding bridges, alongside a next-generation baggage handling system. Significant infrastructure upgrades include expanding the number of outbound baggage handling islands from two to four and increasing inbound baggage claim carousels from four to six. The project will also incorporate inverter-based air-conditioning systems and Variable Air Volume (VAV) technology to optimize operational efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and enhance passenger comfort.

The groundbreaking ceremony for the Renovation and Expansion of the International Passenger Terminal represents a continued effort to reinforce Da Nang International Airport’s position as a benchmark for socialized airport infrastructure development in Vietnam. The airport’s international terminal has been recognized as Vietnam’s only terminal to achieve the prestigious Skytrax 5-Star Airport Terminal rating for three consecutive years, from 2024 to 2026.

The existing international terminal was originally commenced in 2015 and completed in just 18 months before officially entering operation on May 19, 2017, successfully serving the APEC Economic Leaders’ Week 2017. According to Skytrax reports, customer satisfaction regarding customs queue processing times has improved significantly, rising from 1.5 points to 4.5 points compared with 2025.

Speaking at the event, Mr. Ho The Anh, Chief Executive Officer of AHT, stated: “The expansion of Terminal T2 is not merely a solution to the current capacity challenge; it also demonstrates AHT’s long-term commitment to supporting Da Nang’s socio-economic development. This project represents another significant milestone in our mission to create a modern, convenient passenger environment that embraces local cultural identity while reflecting the professionalism and hospitality that characterize the people of Central Vietnam. At the same time, it provides a sustainable solution to the region’s growing infrastructure demands.”

Mr. Le Quang Nam, Vice Chairman of the Da Nang People’s Committee, acknowledges the contributions of project stakeholders.
