Vietnam will remove its Covid-19 restrictions on international passenger flights with all markets starting Feb. 15, with no limitation on the number of flights, Reuters quotes the country's state-run Tuoi Tre newspaper as reporting.

“Vietnam will lift restrictions on international flights starting February 15. The frequency of flights will be restored to pre-pandemic level,” Tuoi Tre said, citing Dinh Viet Son, deputy director of the Civil Aviation Administration of Vietnam.
