Airlines encourage holiday bookings

Viet Nam Airlines and Jetstar Pacific have called for passengers to quickly book seats on flights during the upcoming Lunar New Year Holidays, or Tet, so that they will be able to secure a return to their families on the occasion.
The call was made because certain flights from HCM City to central and northern provinces just before and after Tet, which falls on February 14, are filling up. Viet Nam Airlines said it was difficult for passengers to secure a seat on flights from HCM City to Quy Nhon within a few days of the Tet. Jetstar Pacific confirmed that certain flights between HCM City, Vinh, Hue and Hai Phong were fully booked in the days just before and after Tet.
