As from July, all international flights of the national flag carrier to or from Cam Ranh airport will be operated in terminal T2. This will help improve the quality of Vietnam Airlines’ land services, meeting the airlines’ development demands. The 3-storey terminal covers an area of 50,000 square meters. Designed in the shape of a Salangane nest (a symbol of Khanh Hoa province), it is expected to service 8 million passengers annually by 2030. The international terminal T2 is expected to leave the first cultural impression on visitors to Vietnam.
Vietnam Airlines has 8 check-in counters in D row of the terminal. Business class and SkyPriority passengers have two separate, premium check-in areas. The business class lounge on the 2nd floor can accomodate up to 70 people.
