According to the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam, dense fog in Hanoi and northern localities prevented many planes from landing at Vinh in Nghe An, Noi Bai in Hanoi and Cat Bi in Hai Phong. Only Van Don airport in Quang Ninh could serve landing in late evening.
Some international flights departing from Noi Bai on Thursday were also cancelled due to bad weather. The airport was able to receive flights from early Friday as the weather improved.
