Vietnam Airlines suspends carrying passengers from Europe to Vietnam
The national flag carrier Vietnam Airlines has announced that its flights will stop carrying passengers from London, Paris and Frankfurt to Vietnam from March 15 to prevent the spread of the acute respiratory disease caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19).

Meanwhile, the carrier’s flights from Vietnam to Europe are still available to bring European passengers back to their countries.
Vietnam Airlines is also working with local authorities to divert its flights from London, Paris and Frankfurt on March 14 to the Van Don and Can Tho airports of Vietnam, with all passengers onboard to be put into quarantine after landing.
To support passengers who have booked the epidemic-affected flights between Europe and Vietnam, Vietnam Airlines will waive the fees for changing their itinerary or flying schedule.
