Bamboo Airways will transport medical goods and equipment donated by the Vietnamese government for the Czech Republic.
According to the airlines, the flight which will also transport 280 tourists from the Czech Republic and other European countries will depart at 8.20 am from Noi Bai International Airport in Hanoi for Prague on March 25.
"The flight will be carefully prepared for virus prevention," the airlines said.
Bamboo Airways said that they would use the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner for this special flight which will also be the first direct flight by a Vietnamese airline to the Czech Republic.
The airline has prepared for this route to be launched this year with two flights a week.
