HCMC – Danang City and Narita in Japan have resumed regular flights after a three-year hiatus due to the impact of Covid-19.
The city’s authorities held a ceremony to welcome guests on board the flight from Narita to the Danang International Airport on March 26.
The flight, operated by the national flag carrier, Vietnam Airlines, brought around 180 Japanese guests to the central coastal city.
From now until June 30, the flights between Narita and Danang will be operated at a frequency of four weekly flights.
From July 1, the carrier will increase its weekly flights to seven to boost tourism and trade between Japan and central Vietnam.
According to the Danang Tourism Department, the city considers Japan an important tourism source market to promote local tourism. The resumption of flights between Narita and Danang will create favorable conditions for guests to travel between Japan and Danang.
Since Vietnam’s reopening to international tourists in March 2022, Danang has welcomed around 27,000 visitors from Japan.
