At a meeting on Thursday, the agency’s Director Dinh Viet Thang said the CAAV has envisioned two scenarios for Vietnam’s aviation market this year given the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic.

In the first scenario, where the epidemic is contained before April, airlines in Vietnam would handle a total of 67 million passengers, down 15% year-on-year.

But if the epidemic could only be controlled before June, the market is predicted to fall to 61 million passengers, down 22% against last year.
