## Description

Vietnam Airlines Cargo and UPS run the Cargo Village at Da Nang, Vietnam's third-busiest airport, sitting on the central coast midway between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. The freight apron handles up to five freighters at once, and annual throughput runs roughly 78,000 to 100,000 tonnes. A new 100,000-tonne cargo terminal is under construction, with capacity slated to reach around 330,000 tonnes by 2050. Seafood from central Vietnam is the signature export, moving fresh to Asian and global markets via belly capacity on carriers such as Korean Air, China Airlines, EVA Air, Emirates and Singapore Airlines. Landside, the airport links to the Tien Sa deep-sea port, the North–South railway and the Da Nang–Quang Ngai expressway, giving forwarders genuine multimodal options. That combination of heavy tourist passenger traffic and real freight operations is unusual for central Vietnam.
