Vietnam Airlines To Suspend Flights Between Vietnam, S. Korea

HANOI, Mar 3 (NNN-VNA) – Vietnam Airlines will suspend all flights between Vietnam and South Korea starting from Thursday, following complicated developments of the COVID-19 outbreak.

Flights run by the national flag carrier on Tuesday and Wednesday, scheduled from South Korea’s Incheon International Airport and Gimhae International Airport to Vietnam’s Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, will land at three airports in the northern province of Quang Ninh, central province of Binh Dinh and southern city of Can Tho instead.

The airline will conduct sterilisation on all aircraft returning from South Korea, and that passengers will be informed about plans to resume flights between the two countries later.

Vietnam had earlier announced to suspend visa waiver programmes for South Korean and Italian citizens, amid rising concerns over the fast COVID-19 spread.– NNN-VNA
