Vietnamese national footballers and their head coach Park Hang-seo arrived at Indonesia’s Ngurah Rai International Airport on October 11 to prepare for a World Cup 2020 qualifier match against the hosts.
Vietnam Airlines announced on September 18 that it will launch two new routes connecting Ho Chi Minh City to Indonesia’s Bali resort island and Thailand’s Phuket island from October 27 to meeting increasing travel demands.
Indonesia’s resort island Bali fell quiet on March 7 for the annual “Day of Silence” festival, halting flights, internet and closing tourist attractions to allow time for meditation and introspection.
Indonesia’s Bali resort island reopened Ngurah Rai International Airport at 1:30 pm on June 29 (local time) after Mount Agung’s eruption disrupted hundreds of flights and left thousands stranded.
Ngurah Rai International Airport in the Indonesian tourist island of Bali was closed on June 29 following the volcanic eruption of Mount Agung in the island one day earlier.
At least 445 flights had been cancelled as of November 28 due to volcanic eruption of Mount Agung, affecting more than 90,000 passengers to and from Ngurah Rai International Airport in Indonesia’s Bali resort island, a top holiday destination that attracts millions of foreign tourists every year.
Twenty four Vietnamese, mostly tourists, remain stranded on the Indonesian island of Bali as volcanic ash from Mount Agung prompted the closure of Ngurah Rai International Airport, the island’s main airport.
