SilkAir of Singapore has said it would operate four weekly flights between Singapore and Danang on Vietnam’s central coastal instead of current three flights, starting on Mar. 28.

The carrier operates Airbus A320 aircraft in the 2.5 hour route.
Construction of a new, US$74 million terminal is already underway for Danang Airport. Completion is expected in December this year.
SilkAir operated its maiden flight to Cam Ranh on Dec. 12 last year, the day the airport in the central coastal province of Khanh Hoa officially became an international one.
Also last December, Lien Khuong Airport on the outskirts of the Central Highlands City of Dalat inaugurated an architecturally advanced terminal capable of attracting international travel.
So, Vietnam’s central region has three airports capable of handling international flights – Danang, Cam Ranh and Lien Khuong. Cam Ranh, the biggest, has a new two-story terminal put into service last December, able to receive 800 passengers (including 200 international ones) in a peak hour. The VND200 million terminal also has waiting areas for business and economy-class passengers and other facilities.
As planned for 2020, Cam Ranh Airport will have two runways for 27 aircraft of different types such as Airbus A320, Boeing 767, Boeing 777, Boeing 747 and ATR72 to land and take off in a peak hour. The airport is also designed to handle 37 airplanes in a peak hour by 2030.
