Budget carrier Bamboo Airways announced that it will launch the first repatriation flight to bring back Vietnamese citizens stranded in Ukraine’s war zones on March 9.
The Vietnamese Embassy in Poland has sent officials and staff to the Ukaine-Poland border to receive Vietnamese citizens for repatriation flights.
Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner will be used to bring Vietnamese citizens back from Warsaw (Poland), the airline said on March 4.
Besides Warsaw, Bamboo Airways has also planned to operate repatriation flights from Prague (Czech Republic), Bucharest (Romania), Budapest (Hungary), Bratislava (Slovakia), Moscow (Russia) and Minsk (Belarus).
Bamboo Airways, together with other airlines such as Vietnam Airlines and VietJet Air, are joining a special programme to repatriate Vietnamese citizens left stranded in Ukraine due to the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
The citizens are getting help to leave Ukraine for neighbouring countries to board repatriation flights.
