Almost a quarter thousand LG experts arrived from South Korea and are currently waiting in quarantine

Yesterday noon (April 23), the OZ7747 flight of Asiana Airlines carrying 240 passengers from South Korea's Incheon International Airport arrived at Van Don International Airport in Quang Ninh province. All passengers, who are LG Group experts, had their health checked and were quarantined as per the regulations.

This is the seventh flight carrying South Korean experts to Vietnam in line with the agreement between the two countries' governments and is the 19th flight a total of 3,619 passengers from South Korea to Van Don International Airport since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Yesterday afternoon, another flight carried South Korean engineers, who had come to Vietnam for work before, back to their home country.

Notably, all 240 passengers arriving to Vietnam have been tested very carefully and received certificates testifying that they are negative for COVID-19. When arriving at Van Don International Airport, they were received outside the airport to avoid interaction with others.

They had to submit health declarations, travelled on separate vehicles from the airport to isolation areas, and are required to stay there for 14 days.

Thus, since the global health crisis broke out in Wuhan (China), Van Don International Airport has received 36 flights carrying more than 5,550 passengers, including overseas Vietnamese and South Korean experts coming to Vietnam to work. The airport expected that commercial flights would be run from May.
