The Ca Mau Provincial People's Committee plans to hold a reopening ceremony for Ca Mau Airport on December 18, 2026, welcoming a flight from Hanoi. On its first day, the airport expects to receive three flights as airlines resume services to and from Ca Mau, potentially on routes linking the airport with Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.
Ca Mau Province also plans to hold investment, trade and tourism promotion events from December 17 to 19. It hopes to use the airport's reopening to showcase the province's potential, attract investment and develop tourism. The province expects to invite representatives of government agencies and local authorities, airlines and travel companies to the reopening ceremony.
The Ca Mau Airport upgrade and expansion project is funded by Airports Corporation of Vietnam (ACV), with an investment of 2.4 trillion Vietnamese dong. It includes a new runway 2.4 kilometres long and 45 metres wide to accommodate Airbus A320 and A321 aircraft and comparable narrow-body planes, as well as renovations to the passenger terminal.

The airport has been temporarily closed since October 2025 for construction. ACV had originally planned to resume operations on November 29, 2026, but heavy rain and a shortage of building materials delayed progress, pushing the reopening to December 18.
