Flights to and from Japan and South Korea operated by national flag carrier Vietnam Airlines may have their schedules changed due to the impacts of typhoon Khanun to ensure safety.

On Thursday, later departure times are expected for two flights (VN422 and VN426) from Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi to South Korea’s Busan city as well as two others (VN423 and VN427) from Busan to the Vietnamese cities.

Four flights between Hanoi, HCMC and South Korea’s Incheon will take off earlier.

Flights from South Korea to Vietnam on Thursday morning will have their departure schedules unchanged. The original departure schedules are also kept for flight VN356 from Hanoi to Fukuoka on Wednesday and flight VN357 from Fukuoka to Hanoi.

Other airlines have also adjusted their flight schedules to avoid the typhoon, congestion or delays are likely to occur at airports, leading to unexpected changes in takeoff and landing times.

The changes are made for weather-related safety reasons, and Vietnam Airlines will implement passenger support procedures as per current regulations.
