National flag carrier Vietnam Airlines has proposed purchasing an entire passenger terminal at Hanoi’s Noi Bai International Airport, whose right to operate a private carrier also asked to buy a month earlier.
Vietnam Airlines wants to buy Terminal T1, which now serves domestic flights, at Noi Bai, according to a document signed by the airline’s chairman of the board of members Pham Viet Thanh, and submitted to the Ministry of Transport.
“It is common for big airlines to have their own terminals at their main airports to exclusively serve their flights and passengers,” Thanh wrote in the document.
