Civil Aviation Authority proposes to increase buses to serve night flights during Tet

The Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam has just sent a document to the People's Committees of Thanh Hoa, Nghe An, Quang Binh, Quang Nam, Binh Dinh, Phu Yen and Gia Lai provinces regarding coordination to strengthen measures to ensure the celebration of the Lunar New Year 2024.

Accordingly, in order to implement the direction of the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Transport on strengthening measures to ensure the reception of the Lunar New Year of Giap Thin 2024, the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam has directed airlines, airports, and aviation service providers to review the entire process, develop service plans, arrange human resources, infrastructure, equipment, and vehicles at airports, ensuring readiness for the exploitation plan, serving the peak of the Lunar New Year of Giap Thin and the Spring Festival 2024, ensuring order and safety of air traffic.

Up to now, according to the data reported by airlines and to meet the travel needs of the people, the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam has granted flight permits to airlines to add more flights to/from airports, focusing on operating hours at night.

In order to meet and serve the people's travel needs well, ensure service quality and follow the Prime Minister 's direction in not letting passengers return home for Tet late due to lack of means while ensuring security, order and safety at airports, the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam proposes and recommends that the People's Committees of the provinces direct the Department of Transport to review and request the units operating bus routes to/from airports to make plans, increase the frequency of operations and increase the operating time of buses to/from airports, especially at night according to the night operating hours of the airports.

Airlines will increase night flights during the 2024 Lunar New Year peak season.

The above provinces and cities review and request other transportation service providers in the area such as taxis and technology cars to increase operating hours and the number of vehicles coming to the airport to serve customers in need, especially passengers on night flights to/from the airport.

Localities direct inspection agencies, units, and local police to coordinate with airport authorities and airports to strengthen inspection, supervision, and maintain security and order at airports, promptly handle emerging and urgent situations, and promptly detect and strictly handle organizations and individuals involved in illegal vehicles, passenger solicitation, price gouging, and illegal ticket price increases .
