Weather Briefing
MVFRPhu Quoc International Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with broken clouds at 4,000 feet and 8 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are calm, presenting no crosswind concerns for any runway.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 8 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. The ceiling is 4000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 1,700 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 28°C (82°F) with a dewpoint of 27°C. The temperature-dewpoint spread is very narrow, indicating saturated or near-saturated air. Fog formation or low cloud development is likely.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 24 hours. Conditions are expected to fluctuate between VFR and MVFR. VFR pilots should be prepared for deteriorating conditions. Expected weather includes: Thunderstorm Rain. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 06:00Z and 10:00Z. Temporary MVFR conditions are forecast with Thunderstorm Rain between 22:00Z and 02:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further. The narrow temperature-dewpoint spread creates risk of fog formation, particularly during evening and early morning hours.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Phu Quoc International Airport
Overview
Phu Quoc International Airport serves as a key aviation gateway to Phu Quoc Island in Vietnam, located at coordinates 10.169800, 103.993100. Situated at an elevation of 37 ft mean sea level, the airport operates a single runway 10/28 measuring 9,843 feet with an asphalt surface, accommodating medium-sized aircraft operations.
Flying Conditions
Meteorological data indicates highly consistent visual flight rules (VFR) conditions, with 96% of observations supporting VFR operations. Temperature ranges from 18°C to 34°C with an average of 27.1°C, providing stable thermal conditions. The prevailing wind from the northeast (45°) averages 7.3 knots, with December, January, and November presenting the most favorable flying weather.
Notable Features
The airport's geographic position on an island creates unique wind dynamics, with a remarkably consistent wind profile supporting runway 10/28. Crosswind components average only 4.1 knots, suggesting generally benign lateral wind conditions for most aircraft. The airport's low elevation and island location contribute to predictable meteorological patterns.
Approach Considerations
Runway 10/28 demonstrates 100% favorable wind alignment, making it consistently suitable for arrivals and departures. Excellent visibility averaging 10 statute miles and minimal instances of marginal conditions (only 3.8% MVFR) suggest straightforward approach procedures. Pilots can expect reliable visual references and minimal weather-related operational constraints.
