The two projects include: The first aviation catering project, implemented by Vietnam Airlines Engineering Company (VACS), and the first aircraft maintenance project, carried out by Vietnam Airlines Technical Services Company (VAECO). Both are subsidiaries of Vietnam Airlines.
The aviation catering project is built on a site of over 30,600 square meters, with a total investment of approximately VND 687 billion. In the initial phase, the factory will have a capacity of 20,000 meals per day, which can be increased to 40,000 meals depending on the airport’s development progress. The facility is designed to meet food hygiene and safety standards and the technical requirements of the aviation industry. It includes a separate HALAL meal preparation area spanning over 1,600 square meters.
In addition to serving Vietnam Airlines, VACS also aims to cater to domestic and international airlines operating at Long Thanh Airport, which is envisioned to become a prominent international transit hub in Asia.
The aircraft maintenance project is developed on a site of over 45,500 square meters, with a total investment of over VND 1,100 billion in the first phase. The project includes a hangar capable of accommodating two wide-body and two narrow-body aircraft simultaneously, along with equipment workshops, spare parts warehouses, and auxiliary technical areas. The expected maintenance capacity is at least 250,000 man-hours per year, serving approximately 120-150 aircraft maintenance cycles.

The project is expected to be completed by the time Long Thanh Airport commences commercial operations. At that point, it will be one of the most modern aviation technical centers in Vietnam, providing line and base maintenance services for aircraft such as the Airbus A320, A321, A350, and Boeing 787.
Previously, another Vietnam Airlines subsidiary, Ground Services Company (VIAGS), initiated a project for the repair and maintenance of ground support equipment in Long Thanh.
These projects are being undertaken as Long Thanh Airport prepares for its commercial operation phase. They represent vital technical service infrastructure components that will facilitate the airport’s future operations.
