National flag carrier Vietnam Airlines officially has opened a new direct route connecting Ho Chi Minh City and Haikou city in China’s southern province of Hainan.
Its first flight coded VN688 on the route landed at Meilan international airport in Haikou city on October 28.

Vietnam Airlines would operate four flights on the route per week, using Airbus A321 aircraft.

According to Chinese media, HCM City is the largest city of Vietnam and is considered as “Paris of the Orient”.
The opening of the direct flight between Haikou and HCM City will create favourable conditions for passengers from both countries to travel between China and Vietnam.
