In-flight safety and preventive measures against the COVID-19 pandemic were rigorously enforced to protect the passengers’ health and prevent the spread of the virus.

All of the passengers had their health checked before boarding, wore face masks during the flight and submitted their health declarations.

On arrival in Da Nang, all passengers and crew members received medical check-ups and they were sent to quarantine in line with the national regulations. They are now put under quarantine at a Son Tra District-based hotel with their fee payments.  

All passengers and flight crews will have their swab and blood serum samples taken for coronavirus testing.

Da Nang government is constantly inspecting the strict compliance with the coronavirus pandemic prevention and control measures across the city, with a special heed paid to banning the public from visiting all local designed quarantine facilities under no necessary circumstance.
