National flag carrier Vietnam Airlines and the Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) (China) will work together to develop new air routes under a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that the former presented to its Hong Kong partner on August 1.

Vietnamese airlines had to cancel and reschedule their flights to and from Hong Kong (China) on August 13 due to a mass gathering of demonstrators at the city’s international airport.

National flag carrier Vietnam Airlines has warned of possible disruptions of flights from/to Hong Kong International Airport in the wake of demonstrations in Hong Kong (China) going on since last month.

The national flag carrier Vietnam Airlines and budget carrier Jetstar Pacific have advised their passengers to arrive at Hong Kong International Airport three hours earlier than departure time as a demonstration at the airport may affect their flights.
