LAM DONG (Biz Hub) — Two Jetstar Pacific Airlines flights were forced to divert to HCM City's Tan Son Nhat Airport yesterday due to poor weather conditions.

The flights were traveling from Ha Noi to Da Lat and Hai Phong to Buon Ma Thuot.

The low-cost carrier said Sunday morning's flight BL539 from Hai Phong to Buon Ma Thuot, which landed at HCM City's Tan Son Nhat airport around 9.45am, was later allowed to take off from HCM City to Buon Ma Thuot at 1.30pm.

Meanwhile, flight BL211, which departed from Ha Noi to Da Lat at 7.15am, had to land at HCM City instead of Lien Khuong Airport in Da Lat city around 9am.

The airline said passengers on BL211 received a payment of VND250,000 each to continue their trip from HCM City to Da Lat by bus or taxi.

Further, passengers on two other flights – from Buon Ma Thuot to Hai Phong and Da Lat to Ha Noi – were forced to postpone their trips until Monday. — VNS
