A National Priority Project with Global Significance
On December 11, 2025, the National Assembly approved the investment resolution for the Gia Binh International Airport project, aiming for a 5-star international airport rating among the world’s top 10.
The total investment is set at approximately VND 196,378 billion. Phase 1 (2025–2030) requires VND 141,230 billion, and Phase 2 (2031–2050) needs VND 55,140 billion.

Spanning 1,960 hectares across Gia Binh, Luong Tai, Nhan Thang, and Lam Thao communes in Bac Ninh Province, the airport is strategically located 40 km from Hanoi’s center, 43 km from Noi Bai Airport, and 80 km from Cat Bi Airport (Hai Phong).
