It will also focus on how to link aviation activities and tourism development, towards attracting more foreign visitors to Vietnam.

The project is hoped to make it easy for foreign airlines to increase the frequency of flights from international airports to those of Vietnam.

Regarding Vietnam’s airline development with China, the Ministry of Transport will work with Chinese authorities in charge of airline affairs to remove difficulties facing Vietnamese airlines in running routes to China.

By 2020, Vietnamese carriers will open new routes from several economic hubs and tourism cities of Vietnam to Chinese localities.

Vietnam and Russia will also consider signing more agreements to expand air routes connecting the two countries and routes from Vietnam to third countries through Russian airports.

New air routes will be opened to connect Vietnam and Russia’s Yekaterinburg and Vladivostok cities, while the number of flights from Ha Noi and Ho Chi Minh City to Moscow will be increased.

Vietnam will also develop direct air routes to the cities of San Francisco ​and Los Angeles of the US in 2018.
