The Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam statistics show that there are currently about 30 foreign airlines from Northeast Asia, Southeast Asia, and Middle East countries and France operating flights that carry diplomats, experts, investors, skilled workers, foreign students and cargos to/from Vietnam.

Meanwhile, Vietnamese airlines have used most of their fleets to operate on domestic routes with increases in both frequency and the number of routes.

The authority forecasts that the situation in 2021 will improve compared to 2020, especially in many key markets of Vietnamese aviation such as Northeast Asia and Europe.

The herd immunity, driven by large-scale vaccination, will serve as a basis for gradually reopening international passenger flights at the end of the third quarter and the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2021./.
