Accordingly, construction of two aviation service projects began, namely the No. 1 Aviation Catering Project and the No. 1 Aircraft Maintenance Service Investment and Business Project.
The two projects, with a total investment of nearly VND1.8 trillion, are implemented by Vietnam Air Catering Services Company Limited (VACS) and Vietnam Aircraft Engineering Company Limited (VAECO). These are both key member units of Vietnam Airlines .
These works belong to component project 4, the aviation service area at Long Thanh Airport, which is planned to develop items such as: aircraft maintenance, ground services, catering, logistics and aviation engineering. The goal is to form a synchronous, modern and internationally standard exploitation ecosystem at Vietnam's future transit airport.
In particular, the No. 1 Aviation Catering Service Investment and Business Project is built on a land area of over 30,600 m2, with a total preliminary investment of 687 billion VND. In the first phase, the factory has the capacity to provide 20,000 meals/day and will be expanded to 40,000 meals/day according to the development progress of Long Thanh Airport.
The project has a food processing and preservation line designed according to international standards, meeting the strict standards of 5-star airlines, integrating a quality management system and food hygiene and safety that meets international standards. In particular, VACS will have a HALAL kitchen area with a closed and completely separate process.
In addition to serving Vietnam Airlines, VACS also aims to serve domestic and international airlines operating at Long Thanh Airport, which is expected to soon become an international transit hub in the Asian region.

Meanwhile, the No. 1 Aircraft Maintenance Service Construction and Business Investment Project implemented by VAECO on a land area of over 45,500 m2, with a total investment of over 1,100 billion VND in phase 1.
This is an integrated aviation engineering complex, including a hangar capable of simultaneously maintaining 2 wide-body aircraft (code E) and 2 narrow-body aircraft (code C), along with equipment workshops, technical areas, material warehouses and auxiliary systems. The minimum designed maintenance capacity is 250 thousand Mhrs/year, expected to serve 120-150 aircraft maintenance trips/year. The project is expected to be completed at the same time as Long Thanh Airport goes into commercial operation.
According to a representative of Vietnam Airlines, as a pioneer and a key enterprise in the aviation industry, Vietnam Airlines proactively participated right from the beginning in the process of building and developing Long Thanh Airport.
Through a service ecosystem including catering, technical maintenance, ground operations and aviation fuel supply, Vietnam Airlines is committed to mobilizing all resources along with a wide flight network, with the participation of airlines in the Skyteam alliance, and other strategic cooperation in the aviation sector to contribute to building Long Thanh into a leading aviation transit hub in Asia.
