Default More Japan tourists to go to HCMC on chartered flights

HCMC-based Vietravel and APEX Vietnam Co., LTD have said chartered flights will take hundreds of Japanese tourists to HCMC, the major groups to the city since an earthquake and tsunami hit northeastern Japan in March.
Bui Nguyen Tam Dang, head of the Inbound Department of Vietravel, told the Daily on Tuesday, 21 June 2011, that three groups consisting of 650 guests would come to the city next month. They will be in neighboring Cambodia first before flying to HCMC for a three-day visit to the city and the neighboring Mekong Delta province of Tien Giang.

The market, Dang said, is recovering better than expected as tour bookings by Japanese guests have been on the rise since the disaster. The bookings for up to October are equivalent to 70-80% of the total number in the same period last year.

At the company, Japanese tourist numbers were down by over 40% shortly after the disaster. Then it forecast the market would need two to three years to recover. “Now we think it’ll take just one year,” he said.

  Blooming so steadfast ,fallen so hard to find!
  Beside the flowers`grave,with sorrowing mind,
  The solitary Maid sheds many a tear,
  Which on the boughs as bloody drops appear.
