Tan Son Nhat Airport (Vietnam) is appearing for the first time in the list of the 10 fastest-growing air hubs in the world.

AirBridgeCargo (ABC), a subsidiary of Russian airline conglomerate Volga-Dnepr Group, has launched a new 747-freighter service to Ho Chi Minh City. The move connects Vietnam to ABC’s international network – guaranteeing “48-hour delivery times, including ground handling,” to anywhere ABC flies out of its Moscow hub.

Buoyed by a fast-growing economy and increasing demand for long-range passenger services, Boeing (NYSE: BA) projects that airlines in Southeast Asia will need 940 wide-body aircrafts over the next 20 years, which will cost approximately $280 billion.

Vietnam's economic prospects are still optimistic due to favorable conditions both domestically and internationally.
