Gia Binh International Airport, Hanoi Capital Region - Vietnam

About The Airport

Gia Binh International Airport (GBIA – ICAO VVGB, IATA GBN) is the new international gateway for Hanoi and Northern Vietnam, located in Bac Ninh province in the Hanoi Capital Region. The project was approved by Vietnam’s National Assembly in December 2025 and is developed by Masterise Aviation Infrastructure JSC (MAI), a member of Masterise Group, part of an ecosystem anchored by Techcombank.

Designed to ICAO Code 4F, GBIA is planned for 30 million passengers and 1.6 million tonnes of cargo a year by 2030, rising to 50 million passengers and 2.5 million tonnes by 2050. Within a three-hour flight radius it reaches 297 airports and around 1.3 billion people.

As things stand, the tentative key dates are: the airport opens on 31 May 2027, with the VIP terminal and business aviation; the direct expressway to Hanoi opens at the end of October 2027, putting the airport around 25 minutes from the city; and a separate commercial passenger terminal follows as part of phase one, targeted for 2029.

GBIA is built as an “Aviation Economic Hub 2.0”, linking passenger and cargo connectivity with logistics, trade, a proposed free trade zone and an integrated airport city. Our brand promise: Uplifting Every Journey.
