Its two concrete runways are each 3,800 m × 45 m, supporting widebody and freighter-capable operations subject to airline, aircraft and handling confirmation.

Key Highlights

Northern Vietnam gatewayWell positioned for Hanoi, the Red River Delta and northern industrial provinces.

International and domestic separationTerminal 2 handles international passenger traffic, while Terminal 1 serves domestic operations; cargo routing must follow the booked handling arrangement.

Broad Asian connectivityRegular network planning commonly focuses on Southeast Asia, China, Korea, Japan and other regional gateways, subject to current schedules.

Manufacturing-oriented cargo mixElectronics, components, garments, machinery parts and time-sensitive commercial shipments are important planning categories.

Schedule-sensitive operationsCut-off, warehouse acceptance, customs status and onward trucking should be confirmed for each booking rather than assumed from passenger flight times.

Cargo Facilities & Services

Air cargo handling: Export and import shipments are processed through airport cargo-handling arrangements designated by the operating airline or handling agent. Our team confirms acceptance location, warehouse window and documentation cut-off before dispatch.
Customs-controlled handling: Shipments may require customs presentation, inspection or release before delivery. The applicable procedure depends on export, import, transit, temporary admission and shipment commodity status.
Special cargo: Dangerous goods, pharmaceuticals, perishables, live animals, valuables and oversized cargo require advance acceptance confirmation. Available facilities, packing standards and handling appointments vary by handler.
Temperature management: For healthcare, seafood and other temperature-sensitive cargo, our service team requests the available cool-chain process, acceptance temperature range, storage duration and contingency arrangements in writing.
Import delivery: Final collection is normally coordinated after airline release, customs clearance and warehouse release. Vehicle access, driver identification and collection slots should be checked before sending a truck.

Cargo terminal names, storage capacities, bonded facilities, dangerous-goods rooms and operating hours can change by handling provider and shipment type; our team verifies the live handling plan at booking.

Routes & Transit Times

Regional flows: Common planning corridors include Singapore, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Taipei, Seoul, Tokyo, Osaka, Guangzhou, Shanghai and other Asian gateways, depending on the current operating schedule and available cargo capacity.
Long-haul connections: Europe and other intercontinental destinations may be served by direct capacity or by transshipment through a regional hub. The best routing depends on commodity, aircraft capacity, handling restrictions and connection risk.
Carrier selection: Vietnam Airlines, Vietjet Air and other operating carriers may be considered where their live schedules and cargo acceptance policies match the shipment. Passenger-belly, freighter and interline options must be checked individually.
Transit planning: Published passenger departure time is not the cargo acceptance deadline. Actual transit is affected by booking confirmation, warehouse cut-off, customs release, transfer connection, weekends, holidays and operational irregularities.

Our service team provides a confirmed routing and estimated transit window only after checking the current airline schedule, cargo dimensions, commodity, chargeable weight and required service level.

Hinterland & Key Cargo

Primary hinterland: Hanoi and the northern economic corridor, including industrial and export-manufacturing areas in the Red River Delta, are the core delivery and collection markets.
Electronics and components: High-value electronic products, circuit-related components, telecommunications equipment and production materials are frequently planned as air freight because of value density and production urgency.
Garments and consumer goods: Fashion, footwear, samples and retail-related cargo may require schedule reliability, consolidation control and accurate commercial documentation.
Industrial cargo: Machinery parts, tooling, maintenance spares and urgent replacement items require early dimension checks, packing review and aircraft acceptance confirmation.
Perishables and healthcare: Seafood, agricultural products, pharmaceuticals and medical supplies require commodity-specific packaging, temperature planning and advance handling confirmation.

Operations & Compliance

Booking and cut-off: Obtain the airline’s cargo acceptance deadline, documentation cut-off and warehouse delivery instructions before arranging local transport. Late delivery can result in rollover even when the passenger flight remains scheduled.
Dangerous goods: Batteries, chemicals, aerosols, magnets, liquids and equipment containing batteries must be classified under the applicable IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations. Shipper’s Declaration, UN packaging, labels and carrier approval may be required.
Documents: Commercial invoice, packing list, air waybill data, export declaration and any permits or certificates must be consistent in shipper, consignee, commodity description, quantity, value and country of origin.
Inspection and release: Customs inspection, document queries, valuation review or commodity-control checks may extend the handling cycle. Our team advises keeping the shipment available for inspection and avoiding unverified delivery promises.

Shipping Tips

Send the commercial invoice, packing list, HS code, cargo dimensions, gross weight and battery or dangerous-goods details before requesting a firm booking.
For electronics and high-value cargo, use tamper-evident packaging, itemized packing lists and a clear discrepancy process for warehouse receipt and delivery.
For temperature-sensitive shipments, pre-agree the acceptable temperature range, packaging duration, cool-room process, data-logger requirement and contingency routing.
When capacity is constrained, our service team compares direct uplift with regional transshipment or alternative northern Vietnam gateways, considering customs, trucking and total door-to-door risk rather than flight time alone.
