Buon Ma Thuot Airport
Buon Ma Thuot Airport, coded BMV, serves the city of Buon Ma Thuot in Vietnam's Central Highlands, at an elevation of 1,729 feet. One runway carries domestic connections to Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and other major Vietnamese cities. As a medium airport, BMV serves a region known for coffee production, since the Central Highlands supply a large share of Vietnam's coffee exports. The higher elevation compared to Vietnam's coastal cities gives the area a cooler climate, which suits both coffee cultivation and the airport's operating conditions. Buon Ma Thuot Airport connects a highland region that still has fewer paved road links than the lowlands closer to Vietnam's coast.
