The seat occupancy on international flights has gradually increased since March 15 when Vietnam officially resumed all tourism activities in line with the policy on safety, flexible adaptation to and effective control of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to data released by domestic airlines.
The Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam (CAAV) has suggested the Ministry of Transport allow it to take the initiative in increasing flights, starting from January 14, to meet growing demand as the Lunar New Year (Tet) - the longest and biggest traditional festival of Vietnam - is approaching.
The Ministry of Transport announced on October 19 that it has built plans on restoring domestic flights in the period from October 21 – November 30 based on the outcomes of the pilot resumption of domestic flights from October 10-17.
