Here are the biggest Airport Developments in Southeast Asia, which are approved or currently under construction.
The Philippines, Sangley Point International Airport.
The development of the $11 billion Sangley Point International Airport has moved a step closer to reality, now that its private sector proponents have finally signed the development agreement with the local government of Cavite.
With the signing of the agreement, the group is ready to commence the work necessary to finally implement the long-needed infrastructure project that aimed at providing a premium gateway that will initially serve as an alternative to the Ninoy Aquino International Airport.
U-Tapao Eastern Aviation City, Thailand.
Thailand is investing nearly $9 billion in its aviation city project, known as U-Tapao Eastern Aviation City. This is one of the country's largest megastructure projects. The massive investment from the Thai government is planned to revamp the historical U-Tapao airport to become a new international airport occupying approximately 1,040 hectares of land.
A new passenger terminal building will also be connected to the revamped airport, primarily serving low-cost flights with a dab of full-service carriers, connecting passengers to flights to Don Muang Airport and Suvarnabhumi Airport. But the massive size of land occupied won't just include one terminal building, as the construction plans also include a free trade zone for commodities, a flight training center, and an aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul center.
Techo International Airport, Cambodia.
The Techo International Airport is a greenfield airport, whose construction is currently about 50 percent complete, and is scheduled to commence in early 2025. Located in Kandal province, 30-40km outside of the capital city of Phnom Penh.
The project covers 2,600 hectares making it one of the world's largest airports by land area. It will also include support facilities for residential and commercial areas, making the airport’s vicinity a new property hub once fully operational.
New Siem Reap International Airport, Cambodia.
The new Siem Reap Angkor International Airport will officially begin operations on October 16, with non-commercial and non-profitable test flights set to be conducted from October 5 to 15.
All commercial passenger and cargo flights currently operated at the existing Siem Reap International Airport will be transferred entirely, and one time only to the new facility on October 16.
The $1.1 billion-worth airport is located around 40km east of Siem Reap City center. The airport - which will be built on 750 hectares, with a terminal area spanning more than 80,000 square meters and 38 gates, will be able to accommodate about seven million passengers annually.
Long Thanh International Airport, Vietnam.
Long Thanh International Airport, located in Dong Nai province, about 40 kilometers east of Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam, aspires to become an advanced international airport to meet the growing demand for air travel and increase passenger convenience in Vietnam.
The $4.6 billion initial stage of the airport’s construction in Dong Nai Province is scheduled to be completed by 2026, with a capacity of 25 million passengers and 1.2 million tons of cargo. The project includes runways, terminals, supporting facilities, and the development of the surrounding area.
New Manila International Airport, Philippines.
San Miguel Aerocity Incorporated has reached at least 75 percent completion of land development for the New Manila International Airport. The builder of the soon-to-be largest gateway in the Philippines is accelerating land development with the goal of starting civil works next year.
The $15 billion Airport City development project is expected to start commercial operation by 2027, with the terminal one will be erected by the first quarter of 2024.
