The Airports Corporation of Vietnam (ACV) and the People's Committee of central Thua Thien-Hue Province held a ceremony Saturday to inaugurate Terminal 2 of Phu Bai International Airport.

Nguyen Hoang Anh, Chairman of the Commission for the Management of State Capital at Enterprises, said the operation of the terminal will contribute to fostering socio-economic development of Thua Thien-Hue Province while providing important transportation infrastructure for regional connectivity and ensuring national defense and security.

Construction of Terminal 2 began in 2019 at a total cost of nearly VND2.3 trillion (US$97.75 million) funded by the ACV. It was designed to serve 5 million passengers each year.

It is also the first terminal of the ACV to apply digital transformation, upgrade digital infrastructure, and digitalize operational processes to standardize operational procedures and provide convenience for passengers.
