"After a period of heavy impact by the pandemic, Vietnam Airlines has quickly recovered, opening a series of new key international routes such as Melbourne, Perth (Australia), Munich (Germany), Milan (Italy)... and will open another route to Copenhagen (Denmark) in December. Vietnam Airlines continues to expand its flight network, upgrade services and promote sustainable development initiatives, including digital transformation and green transformation" - General Director Le Hong Ha affirmed.
