The flight was arranged by Vietnamese authorities, the Vietnamese Embassy in the RoK, the national flag carrier Vietnam Airlines, and relevant RoK agencies.
The passengers are the elderly, children aged under 18, pregnant women, those in poor health conditions, workers with expired labour contracts, and students with no accommodations due to hostel closure.
The Vietnamese Embassy sent staff to the airport to assist them.
During the flight, strict measures were applied to protect passengers’ health and prevent the spread of the disease.
Rightly after landing at Noi Bai International Airport in Hanoi, all passengers and crew members were given health check and quarantined as regulated.
Under the directions of the Prime Minister, domestic agencies and overseas representative offices of Vietnam continue arranging more flights to take Vietnamese citizens home, depending on the citizens’ need and the country’s quarantine capacity./.
