Hanoi (VNA) – Noi Bai International Airport in Hanoi is anticipated to serve 96,000 passengers and 580 flights during the upcoming five-day break from April 29-May 3.

This estimated number of passengers will be 20% more than the same period last year but it is yet to break the record set during last summer’s peak season, said a representative of the management of the airport.

To properly serve the travel needs of the people, the airport has strengthened coordination with airlines and ground service units and developed a plan for preparation.

Airport authorities have asked passengers to make use of public transport in a bid to avoid heavy traffic. 

Passengers are also advised to strengthen COVID-19 prevention measures, including wearing masks and taking disinfection as suggested by the Ministry of Health./.
