Noi Bai International Airport (IATA: HAN, ICAO: VVNB) (Vietnamese: Sân bay Quốc tế Nội Bài), the biggest airport in northern Vietnam, serves the capital city Hanoi. The airport is 28 miles (45 km) from the city centre. Travel time by taxi takes between 30 to 45 minutes.

Facilities

The airport is small in size compared to the other two international airports in Vietnam. A larger international airport is also planned for Hanoi, for which loans have already been secured.

It has a new 3,800-meter paved runway (CAT II - 11R/29L - Opened in August 2006) and an old 3,200-meter paved runway (CAT I -11L/29R)

The distance between the two runways at Noi Bai Airport is just 250 meters; therefore, Noi Bai International Airport has a maximum capacity of 10 million passengers a year in accordance with International Civil Aviation Organisation safety regulations.[1]

History

In 2008, this airport received approximately 8.0 million passengers and accounts for one-third of international departures and arrivals at Vietnam's three international airports.[citation needed]

There is currently only one passenger terminal at Noi Bai Airport, but there are plans to construct another passenger terminal. As of August 2009, the following destinations are served from Hanoi:
