Vietnam Airlines move operations to new terminal at China’s Baiyun airport
The Vietnam Airlines Corporation announced that it will switch operations to Terminal T2 from Terminal T1 at Baiyun International Airport in China’s Guangzhou city from May 19 to improve its services.
Covering an area of some 880,700 square metres, the new terminal is one of the largest terminals in China and can serve 45 million visitors per year.
At the terminal, Vietnam Airlines will run check-in counters from 25 to 33. Fast track services for Golden Lotus members with Platinum membership status and business-class passengers will be applied at the new terminal.
The 4,200 square-metre business-class waiting lounge is on the fourth floor and will serve Golden Lotus members and business-class passengers from May 19.
Vietnam Airlines has informed passengers of the change in English, Vietnamese and Chinese.
Relevant authorities will give further instructions for passengers at terminal T2 and increase bus services to the airport.
Other airlines also operate at the T2 terminal, including China Southern Airlines, Air France, China Airlines, Aeroflot and Korean Air.
Currently, Vietnam Airlines runs three direct flights connecting Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang city with Guangzhou with 17 flights per week. Last year, the carrier transported nearly 1 million passengers between Vietnam and Guangzhou, up nearly 28% from the same time last year.
