As proposed, land clearance and compensation will be carried out in two phases with over 2,557 hectares of land in Binh Son, Long An, Suoi Trau and Cam Duong communes to be reclaimed first, affecting more than 1,800 households.

The construction is set to start in 2019 and the airport is likely to become operational by 2023.
