The Quang Binh Tourism Department has coordinated with Chiang Mai Tourism Association to organize a talk show to introduce Quang Binh’s tourism and air connections Dong Hoi and Chiang Mai.
Mr. Le The Luc speaking at the event
In his speech at the event, Mr. Le The Luc, Deputy Director of Quang Binh Tourism Department, emphasized the cooperation and links between the two localities, though still new, have made steady progress. However, the number of tourists from Chiang Mai to Quang Binh is still lower than the number of 1 million foreigners living and working in Chiang Mai.
He believed that with the concentration on improving the quality of services, Quang Binh will increasingly meet the demand of Thai tourists in general and tourists from Chiang Mai in particular. Particular, the launch of the air route from Dong Hoi to Chiang Mai will contribute to boosting the exchange of travellers between the two sides in the coming time.
Flights between Dong Hoi and Chiang Mai were operated by Jetstar Pacific from August 11th, 2017 in order to connect the central region of Viet Nam to the North of Thailand, to contribute to serving the travel demand of tourists and people.
The air route has two flights a week on Monday and Friday by Airbus A320 aircraft with 180 economy seats. The flying duration is 1 hours 40 minutes.
