The flight was arranged by the Vietnamese authorities, Vietnamese representative agencies in the US and Japan, Vietnam Airlines and related agencies of the host countries.

The passengers included children under 18 years old, the elderly, the ill, students who completed their courses but lacked accommodation due to dormitory closures, and others with special disadvantages.

According to the Vietnam News Agency, Vietnam’s representative agencies in the US and Japan had actively assisted citizens living in faraway places or those needing special help to reach the airports of San Francisco and Los Angeles in the US and Narita in Japan for the flight. They had also sent staff to the airports to help the citizens handle boarding procedures.

Vietnam Airlines strictly carried out security, safety and hygiene measures during the flight to protect the passengers’ health and prevent the spread of diseases.

Right after landing at Da Nang International Airport in central Da Nang city, all passengers and crew members received health check-up and were sent to concentrated quarantine sites in lines with regulations.

More repatriation flights will be arranged in the coming time depending on overseas Vietnamese’s demand, the pandemic’s developments, and domestic quarantine capacity./.
