Cam Ranh International Airport will apply automatic check-in and VAT refund technology... like Changi Airport (Singapore) - the 7th busiest airport in the world.
This is the content of the contract for non-aviation service business management and international flight route development signed between Cam Ranh International Terminal Joint Stock Company (CRTC) and Changi Airports International (CAI), on the sidelines of Singapore Airshow 2024, on February 20 in Singapore.
Cam Ranh International Airport is owned by Mr. Johnathan Hanh Nguyen. According to the agreement, in the next 5 years, CRTC, chaired by Mr. Johnathan Hanh Nguyen, will cooperate with CAI to improve the passenger experience at Cam Ranh International Airport, as well as promote revenue growth of this terminal.
Changi Airport (Singapore) has been ranked by Skytrax as one of the world's top airports for more than ten consecutive years. Before the Covid-19 pandemic, Changi welcomed more than 68 million passengers and was the 7th busiest airport in the world.
Therefore, by cooperating with CAI - the investor and manager of Changi Airport, Cam Ranh International Terminal will have the opportunity to develop advanced technologies, such as automatic check-in, immigration and VAT refund systems. "Vietnam competes internationally, we must develop and have airports like Changi," said Mr. Hanh Nguyen.

Cam Ranh International Terminal opened in July 2018 and welcomed 6.5 million passengers in 2019 - before the pandemic. Currently, more than 30 airlines operate here, connecting Nha Trang to more than 100 destinations around the world. This is also the fourth busiest airport in Vietnam.
However, the pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war have had a major impact, causing a drop in passenger traffic at the station. This has also slowed down many of CRTC's plans in recent years.
CRTC said that joining hands with the Singaporean airport giant will help Cam Ranh International Terminal connect with many major airports around the world and attract more foreign partners. Passengers will also experience green, modern spaces and resting places. In the coming time, Cam Ranh International Airport aims to welcome 8-10 million passengers per year.

At the signing ceremony, CAI CEO Eugene Gan also said that he was very excited to bring his years of accumulated experience to work with CRTC to improve the passenger experience at Cam Ranh International Airport.
CAI is a leading airport investor, manager and development consultant in the global aviation market. The company has experience working with more than 60 airports in 20 countries, the most typical of which is Changi Airport.
