Welcome to Vietnam’s newest airport, Van Don Airport (also known as the Quảng Ninh International Airport) in Quảng Ninh Province.
A massive 290 hectares of land was set aside for the construction of the new airport, which began in March 2015. Only three years on and the airport is ready to open in June 2018.
The new airport will dramatically improve access to Vietnam’s premiere tourist destination, Halong Bay. The Van Don Airport is a mere 60km from the famous turquoise bay with its limestone pillars.
Previously, travelers to Halong Bay would have needed to fly to the Noi Ba International Airport in Hanoi and then take a four-hour bus journey to the UNESCO world heritage site.
