Vietnam Airlines resumes Narita-Danang air route

On March 26, Vietnam Airlines resumed its direct flight service between Danang and Tokyo's Narita Airport, with a flight carrying 180 tourists from Japan to the central city. The two-year suspension of this flight due to Covid-19 has now ended, which is expected to lead to a full recovery of tourism in the city and growth from the Japanese tourism market. In celebration of the return of Japanese tourists to Danang, VNA presented three lucky Japanese tourists with return tickets on the flight. VNA will operate four flights per week from March 26 to June 30 and increase the number to seven flights per week from July 1 to boost investment, trade, and tourism between Japan and central Vietnam. The resumption of this flight is part of the 2023-27 promotion and cooperation agreement signed by VNA and the central city. Since the city opened its doors to tourism in March last year, VNA has operated seven out of eight domestic and three international routes connecting Danang and global destinations. Nguyen Xuan Binh, Vice Director of the city's tourism department, stated that Japan is a key market for the city's tourism. Since last March, 27,000 Japanese tourists have visited the city.<br/>
