CAI to run Phu Quoc Airport under Vietnam’s first ‘destination’ model

It will oversee operations under a partnership with Sun Group.

Changi Airports International (CAI) has signed a strategic partnership with Vietnam’s Sun Group to manage Phu Quoc International Airport.

CAI will oversee the airport’s operations and introduce Vietnam’s first ‘airport destination’ model.

Its responsibilities include providing design advisory, implementing a Concept of Operations, preparing for operational readiness, and managing full operations after opening.

In addition, it will develop international flight networks and a non-aeronautical ecosystem featuring global retail, food and beverage, and duty-free brands.

Phu Quoc International Airport will become the first airport in Vietnam to be operated by an international partner under Changi standards, according to Sun Group in a press release.

CAI has implemented its operational model at over 60 airports, including Tom Jobim in Brazil, Chongqing in China, Fukuoka in Japan, and Clark in the Philippines.
