VTV.vn - First batches of lychee in the 2021 crop of the northern province of Bac Giang left for Japan on flights arranged by national flag carrier Vietnam Airlines on early May 27.

The flights, carrying close to 10 tonnes of the tropical fruit, are bound for two major Japanese cities of Tokyo and Osaka.

In-flight safety and COVID-19 preventive measures were seriously enforced to ensure product quality and prevent the spread of the disease.

Additionally, Vietnam Airlines has joined hands with Bac Giang to increase flights in an effort to ensure domestic supply and provide optimal transport for the province’s goods and farm produce in particular.

The carrier is operating cargo transport services on its international routes to facilitate trade and productions of localities nationwide.
