In terms of the winter flight schedule, Noi Bai, Tan Son Nhat, and Da Nang are the airports which will have the highest frequency and intensity of operations.

Along with the regular winter 2024 flight schedule licensed by the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam (CAAV), local airlines are developing plans to increase operations on domestic routes to meet air travel demand during peak periods, such as the New Year and the Lunar New Year in 2025.

CAAV has also required air carriers to increase the size of their fleets, adjust landing and take-off times, and arrange night flights in order to meet the travel needs of people during the upcoming holidays based on existing aviation infrastructure and security and safety work.
