Can Tho, Vietnam

Can Tho International Airport (IATA: VCA, ICAO: VVCT) is the main airport serving Can Tho, the largest city in Vietnam's Mekong Delta region. It handles both domestic and limited international flights, connecting the delta to Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and select regional destinations.
