On December 10, 2021 the Government approved the resumption of commercial flights between Viet Nam and nine destinations with high vaccination rates and good pandemic control measures in place, starting from January 1, 2022.

Specifically, regular flights are scheduled to resume to Bangkok (Thailand), Beijing/Guangzhou (China), Phnom Penh (Cambodia), San Francisco or Los Angeles (the U.S.), Seoul (the Republic of Korea), Singapore, Taiwan, Tokyo (Japan), and Vientiane (Laos).
