Notably, on June 11 – the first Sunday after the high school entrance exam, over 103,000 passengers on board over 620 flights passed through the airport
Its managers predict that in the peak period this summer, it will serve 109,000 passengers, including nearly 29,000 foreigners, each day, up around 38% compared to that on normal days, and 15% against the same period last year.
The increase is attributed to rises in the number of foreign tourists and international flights.
Noi Bai is making necessary preparations to better serve passengers during the peak time, they added.
