The carrier conducted a survey of the conditions for take-off and landing on the route and opened a flight training course for seaplane pilots in Co To District on June 1.

Cessna Caravan aircraft will be used on the route, Hai said, adding that Hai Au Airline has ten-year experience of operating in the Ha Long Bay area with a 100 percent safe flight rate.
In the first five months of this year, Co To district hosted 72,000 visitors. In May alone, the figure was nearly 39,000, including 1,118 foreigners.
