Airport Targets Electronics Exports With Free Trade Zone
Gia Binh International Airport is developing a cargo strategy centered around northern Vietnam’s expanding manufacturing base and a proposed 5,000-hectare free-trade zone near Hanoi. The airport aims to handle 1.6 million metric tons of freight annually by 2030 and 2.5 million metric tons by 2050. Masterise Aviation Infrastructure, the airport’s developer, believes that logistics infrastructure has not kept pace with the region’s growing electronics exports, which totaled $150 billion in 2025. The project was reported by Aviation Week.
