To protect the citizens’ health and prevent the transmission of COVID-19, security, safety and hygiene measures were seriously carried out during the flight.

Upon their arrival at Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Ho Chi Minh City, all the crew members and passengers were given medical check-ups and sent to concentrated quarantine sites in line with regulations.

More repatriation flights are set to be conducted in the time ahead, depending on overseas Vietnamese’s demand and domestic quarantine capacity.
