In order to meet passenger demand, domestic airlines are continuing to operate night flights, ensuring absolute safety and compliance with infrastructure requirements.

In the afternoon of January 11, Tan Son Nhat Airport Authority reported that the demand for air travel during the Lunar New Year 2025 has surged, particularly on routes from Ho Chi Minh City to northern provinces.

Many routes are fully booked or have high ticket prices due to the high travel demand during the peak period.
