Flights connecting the southernmost province of Ca Mau with Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City may be launched this June according to local authorities.
The Ca Mau Provincial People's Committee announced last Saturday that Bamboo Airways may launch flights connecting the province with the country's two biggest cities using E175AR/E175LR planes from late June.
The carrier has asked local authorities to carry out repairs to the current runways in order to better serve flights and other services.
Chairman of the provincial people's committee, Lam Van Bi said that they would create favourable conditions to ensure fuel supplies and other technical and environmental issues to conduct the flights safely.
According to the upgrade plan for the Ca Mau Airport, which has been approved by the Ministry of Transport, the current runway of 1,500 metres long will be expanded to 2,400 metres to serve A320 and A321 planes. The upgrade work is expected to be completed by the end of this year.
At present, the airport only serves one return flight to and from Ho Chi Minh City with ATR 72-500 aircraft.
