International travel curbs set to end in Vietnam
Vietnam is set to remove its COVID restrictions on international flights, paving the way for a recovery for the tourism sector
News outlets in Vietnam have revealed the nation will remove its COVID restrictions on international passenger flights with all markets as of February 15, with no limitation on the number of flights.
The Southeast Asian country imposed tight border controls at the start of the pandemic to keep out the virus and did initially have some success.
The tight border measures however dealt a blow to its burgeoning tourism sector which accounted for about 10 percent of GDP.
“Vietnam will lift restrictions on international flights starting February 15. The frequency of flights will be restored to pre-pandemic level,”
News Outlet Tuoi Tre said, citing Dinh Viet Son, deputy director of the Civil Aviation Administration of Vietnam.
Vietnam has already informed its partners about that new policy and only China has not yet agreed to resume commercial flights with Vietnam.
So what’s the catch?
Vietnam had begun slowly resuming international flights with 15 markets from the beginning of this year.
The nation also eased some quarantine requirements, with vaccinated passengers now needing just three days of self-isolation after arriving into the country.
