The expenses for the flights are supported by Vietnam Airlines and its partners through a charity auction.
The workers are also supported to travel from Noi Bai International Airport in Hanoi to bus stations in the city center where they can then catch coaches home.
“Our income has been seriously affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, and we have not been able to return home for Tet for several years. I am so happy to get a free return ticket home,” says a worker at the airport.
