Accordingly, the route connecting Vinh to Phu Quoc island district of the Mekong Delta province of Kien Giang will run four flights per week, beginning on June 12.

Meanwhile, the routes linking Vinh and the Mekong delta city of Can Tho and Nha Trang city in the south central coastal province of Khanh Hoa will kick off on June 22, each operating three flights per week.

The new routes are expected to help push trade and tourism connection between Nghe An and other north central provinces with the above localities.

Nghe An aims to serve 5.1 million tourists and earn over VND5.2 trillion (over US$222.9 million) in revenue in 2020, up 8.5% and 17% year-on-year, respectively.
