Vietnam To Resume Int’l Flights From Jan, 2022

HANOI, Dec 11 (NNN-VNA) – The Vietnamese government approved the resumption of regular commercial flights between Vietnam and international destinations, which are highly safe from COVID-19, from Jan 1, 2022.

According to the latest notice by the Vietnamese government, the destinations included those in China, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Singapore, Laos, Cambodia and the United States.

The move is to restore international passenger transport, speed up economic and tourism recovery and enable overseas Vietnamese to return to their homeland, for the upcoming Lunar New Year, Vietnamese Deputy Prime Minister, Pham Binh Minh said, in the government directive.

While the resumption of international flights is necessary, effective pandemic control must also be ensured, Minh said, urging relevant authorities and aviation businesses, to work actively to realise the approved plan and make recommendations for adjustments, in accordance with the actual situation.

Vietnam closed its borders and grounded all international flights in Mar last year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, only allowing entry for Vietnamese repatriates, foreign experts and highly-skilled workers, with certain quarantine requirements.– NNN-VNA
