National flag carrier Vietnam Airlines plans to form a cargo carrier as part of efforts to shore up its business that has been hard hit by Covid-19 outbreaks.
The carrier has converted seven passenger planes into cargo carriers – five wide-bodied Airbus A350s and two narrow-bodied A321s, Vietnam Airlines chairman Dang Ngoc Hoa said at its annual shareholders’ meeting Wednesday.
In June, its cargo transport revenue, which normally accounts for 10 percent of the total, surpassed that of passenger transport.
