The flight has marked the airline’s return to Khanh Hoa after a three-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Estar Jet Airlines is expected to operate the Incheon - Cam Ranh route with a frequency of four flights per week on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.

With the resumption of Eastar Jet Airlines, there are about 15 flights running from five major RoK cities (Seoul, Busan, Gwangju, Cheongju, Daegu) to Khanh Hoa province every day, according to information released by the Cam Ranh International Terminal Joint Stock Company.

Notably, the Incheon - Cam Ranh route will be operated by Vietnamese and Korean airlines with the highest frequency of about ten flights per day.

Statistics from the Khanh Hoa Department of Tourism indicated that the locality welcomed 900,000 Korean tourists over the past 10 months, accounting for more than 50% of the total number of international visitors to the province.

The number of Korean tourists to Khanh Hoa is anticipated to keep rising in the coming months as the RoK is entering the cold winter, according to insiders.
