Vietnam Airlines adjusts flights over the Middle East

To ensure the absolute safety of passengers and operations, Vietnam Airlines has proactively monitored and redirected flights between Vietnam and Europe to avoid areas that may be affected ahead of escalating tensions in the Middle East.

As a result, regular flights to Europe from Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City to Paris, Frankfurt, and London will stay clear of and not fly over the affected airspace. This adjustment will extend flight times by approximately 15 minutes between Vietnam and Europe and will incur additional operational costs for the airline. However, prioritizing the safety of passengers and crew as the number one principle, Vietnam Airlines will maintain this flight adjustment until the tensions have resolved.
