Airports have strong potential for growth

Accordingly, Da Nang International Airport is expected to receive 25 million passengers a year and Chu Lai Airport will greet 10 million arrivals per year by 2030.

Based on transport demand and the situation of the socio-economic development, the Ministry of Transport will consider allocating flights between these airfields to ensure effective exploitation and create a driving force for investment development of Chu Lai Airport.
