Hanoi (VNA) – The Ca Mau airport in the southernmost province of Ca Mau will be upgraded to class 4C, able to accommodate A320 and A321 aircraft by 2030, in line with approved planning, according to the Ministry of Transport.

The ministry said in response to Ca Mau province’s proposal on upgrading the airport that the upgrade will be carried out from now to 2030, with the reparation of the runway and taxiway at the airport already underway, implemented by the Airports Corporation of Vietnam (ACV).  

Ca Mau airport is currently a class 3C facility, accommodating ATR 72 airplanes and similar aircraft.

The ministry noted that on April 29, Bamboo Airways launched a direct service between Hanoi and Ca Mau with three flights a week.

Regarding the province’s proposal on adding the planning for a highway from Ca Mau city to Dat Mui commune, the southernmost point of the country, to the national road planning for 2021-2030 with a vision to 2050, the ministry said it will consider the suggestion and report to competent authority.

It added that large-scale transport infrastructure for the corridor from Ca Mau to Dat Mui is yet to be considered in the process of building transport planning for 2021-2030 due to low transport needs. However, plannings will be reviewed and adjusted every five years, according to the Law on Planning./.
