Vietnam Airlines, Jetstar Pacific halt many routes linking with China
Vietnam Airlines and Jetstar Pacific have become the latest Vietnamese carriers to change schedules of flights linking the country with China in the face of the acute respiratory disease caused by the novel coronavirus (nCoV).
On late Friday, the two airlines announced changes to their flights between the two countries, saying the move aims to protect passengers’ health and help contain the spread of nCoV.
Accordingly, Vietnam Airlines is going to suspend the Hanoi-Hong Kong route starting on February 6 and reduce the frequency of the Ho Chi Minh City-Hong Kong route from 10 flights to seven flights per week.
