The plan aims to develop and make VASCO become an important airline of the Corporation in the regional of Mekong River Delta. It is expected that, in the future, Vietnam Airlines will continue to study the plan to transfer additional routes of Vietnam Airlines to the VASCO, to develop business scale and the exploitation of VASCO; thereby, it will meet the increasing travel needs of customers. Also, due to the fact that Pleiku Airport is in the time of construction of upgrading runways, taxiways, and aircraft parking, Vietnam Airlines continues to adjust the timing extraction flights between Hanoi / Ho Chi Minh City to Pleiku to the frame of daylight hours during the period from January 28th to March 15th (ie December 12th to January 25th in lunar calendar). Specifically, flights in January 2015 will be exploited before 16:30; and those in Febraury and March 2015 will be exploited before 17:00 daily.

Vietnam Airline also announced that since January 29th 2015, all domestic flights exploited in E Lounge will be moved to A / B Lounge of Terminal T1 of Noi Bai International Airport. The conversion is to put counters of Vietnam Airlines domestic flights to gather in one area, allowing passengers to get more convenience in procedures, luggage and boarding. For Vietnam Airlines international flights at the new terminal, the opening time at counters is two hours before departure time and close 40 minutes before departure time.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Hai Yen, Director of Rach Gia Airport said that Rach Gia Airport will steer officers and workers to keep promoting achieved results to cooperate with VASCO to better the work of ensuring the quality of exploitation.
