AIP referenceVVPQ — AIP Vietnam (VATM/CAAV, AD 2.VVPQ)
Operating hoursH24 — no curfew. Single-runway airport (10/28) already operating above its original ACV-era design capacity of ~2.65-4M pax/yr (4.14M pax in 2024; traffic has grown sharply since — Sun Group reported ~5.7M passengers in just H1 2026). A second runway (10L/28R, 3,300 m) was built through 2025-2026 as part of the Sun Group expansion and completed its first flight-calibration inspection in late July 2026 (widely reported ~27-28 Jul 2026), but as of Aug 2026 it is still going through certification and is not yet published in the AIP for commercial use.
TerminalsSingle passenger terminal (~24,325 sqm, opened 2 Dec 2012) handling both domestic and international traffic, original ACV-era design capacity ~2.65M pax/yr (some planning documents cite up to ~4-7M as the facility's practical/maximum-planned ceiling); a new international Terminal 2 designed by Singapore's CPG Consultants (phoenix-inspired design, ~US$836M, publicly unveiled Mar 2026) is under construction as part of Sun Group's roughly 1,000-hectare Phu Quoc airport-city expansion, targeting on the order of 20M pax/yr capacity, timed to APEC 2027

Vietnam's main gateway for Phu Quoc Island's beach-tourism economy; hub for Vietnam Airlines, VASCO and Sun Group's own start-up carrier Sun PhuQuoc Airways (launched 1 Nov 2025). Formerly an ACV airport, it passed to Sun Group subsidiary Sun Airport JSC (SAC) effective 1 Jan 2026, with Changi Airports International brought in under a strategic operating partnership from Mar 2026. It is mid-build on a second 3,300 m runway (flight-calibration completed late Jul 2026, not yet AIP-published) plus a new CPG-designed Terminal 2, both driven by traffic that already outgrew the original single-runway/single-terminal design and by the 2025-2026 build-out timed to APEC 2027. The handover followed a Nov 2025 asset transfer hosted by An Giang province (infrastructure reception 22 Nov 2025) and a Ministry of Construction business-operating licence issued 26 Dec 2025.

Aviation security
Unconfirmed
National Aviation Security Center (Trung tam An ninh hang khong Quoc gia) -- Ministry of Public Security / Immigration Management Department
Since 1 Mar 2025, statutory aviation-security screening and airside-access control at Vietnam's ACV-network airports was centralised away from individual airport operators (previously largely delivered by ACV's own security force, the model the original brief assumed still applied at PQC) to this new Ministry of Public Security unit, launched 28 Feb 2025 under the Immigration Management Department (Director: Col. Pham Hoang Diep), covering '22 airports and aviation ports' nationwide -- reported elsewhere as 21 of Vietnam's 22 airports, i.e. all except privately-run Van Don. Phu Quoc International, an ACV/Group-1 international airport at the time of the transfer, falls within this nationwide scope, but no source found names Phu Quoc specifically by station, so this is marked unconfirmed pending a PQC-specific citation; per caa.gov.vn, xaydungchinhsach.chinhphu.vn, nhandan.vn and tienphong.vn coverage of the 28 Feb/1 Mar 2025 handover. This security transfer predates and is independent of the separate 1 Jan 2026 ACV-to-Sun-Group handover of PQC's commercial/infrastructure operation, so Sun Group/SAC/SGP are not the security provider.
