NGHỆ AN – Bad weather conditions with dense fog have forced many flights from/to Vinh International Airport in the central province of Nghệ An to change their routes on February 19-20.

Nghiêm Mạnh Tuấn, Director of the airport, said that from February 19 morning to February 20 morning, seven flights have had to change their routes, affecting 1,300 passengers.

Of this, five flights were guided to land at Đà Nẵng International Airport in Đà Nẵng City, while the remaining two had to land at Nội Bài International Airport in Hà Nội.

Tuấn said that right after the weather improves, relevant agencies will resume the operation of flights at the airport.

Earlier on February 5, dense fog and unsafe conditions also caused the cancellation of 16 flights and the rerouting of four others at Vinh International Airport. VNS
