The terminal equipment meets international standards and includes ten luggage conveyor belts, eight sky bridges, 20 escalators, 18 elevators, eight moving walkways, ten sets of automatic doors, 43 X-ray machines and flight information boards and security equipment (CCTV and screening equipment). The construction of a new TSNIA international terminal, T2, began in August 2004 and was opened in the first quarter of 2007. The rest was sourced from the Southern Aviation Administration budget.
JBIC loans normally cover 85% of project costs. The loan was provided for equipment purchases and consultancy services and had a term of 40 years, with ten years interest-free. The project plan followed a special Japan Government Official Development Assistance loan from the Japan Bank for International Cooperation JBIC of VND3.4tn ($260m). In 2002, the Civil Aviation Administration of Vietnam put forward a construction plan for a new international terminal at the airport. The airport is controlled by the Airports Corporation of Vietnam (ACV) and has undergone various expansion projects to keep up with demand. TSNIA accounts for nearly two-thirds of the international arrivals and departures in all of Vietnam’s airports. The airport’s capacity will increase to up to 50 million passengers a year, upon completion of the terminal. The project is expected to be completed by 2024 and become the country’s largest domestic passenger terminal with a capacity of 20 million passengers a year. Construction work on the T3 terminal began in December 2022. In May 2020, the construction of a new T3 domestic terminal was approved to increase passenger handling capacity and relieve congestion at the airport.
