The Private Aviation Standard for Hanoi

Originally established in the 1930s, Gia Lam Airport has evolved into a vital hub for private and government aviation, providing seamless entry to one of Southeast Asia’s most dynamic capitals. Today, Gia Lam is the preferred choice for private jet travelers seeking to avoid the crowds and complexities of Noi Bai International Airport. Its dedicated facilities and streamlined operations allow for swift arrivals and departures, with attentive ground handling and discreet service throughout.


What distinguishes Gia Lam is its exclusive focus on non-commercial traffic. The airport’s operational protocols and security measures ensure an environment designed for privacy, confidentiality, and efficiency. Private aviation clients benefit from expedited customs and immigration on select flights, direct vehicle-to-aircraft access, and the peace of mind that comes with a restricted-access airfield. For business and leisure travelers to Hanoi, this means more time in the city and less time spent waiting on the ground.


Whether you are arriving for high-level meetings or embarking on a luxury escape to Ha Long Bay, Gia Lam caters to every aspect of your journey. The proximity to Hanoi’s central business district is unmatched, and with Jettly’s tailored services, your private jet experience here is as seamless as it is sophisticated.
