The flight was arranged by Vietnamese agencies, the Vietnam Economic-Cultural Office in Taipei and Taiwanese agencies in order to bring Vietnamese citizens who were stuck in Taiwan in particularly disadvantaged circumstances back home.

Passengers on the flight included students under 18, elderly people, pregnant women, people with illnesses, labourers whose working contracts had ended and visitors whose visas had expired.

After the flight landed in Da Nang, all those on the flight were given medical checka and sent to quarantine in line with regulations.

Implementing the Prime Minister’s instructions, Vietnamese agencies, Vietnamese representative agencies abroad and domestic airlines will continue to conduct flights to bring overseas Vietnamese citizens back to Vietnam, depending on the domestic epidemic situation, the wish of the citizens and the capacity of domestic quarantine facilities.
