The Da Nang City People’s Committee and Lam Dong province have signed an agreement with Vietnam Airlines to re-open an air route connecting Da Nang and Da Lat, a local paper has said.

Beginning in mid-June, the carrier will operate at least four flights per week from Da Nang to Da Lat with ATR72 aircraft, the Tuoi Tre newspaper said.

The air route was re-opened to satisfy the demand of residents in the area as well as promote tourism development of two key tourism cities in the central and Central Highlands region./.
