Update news flight delay
CAAV said late-arriving aircraft was the main cause of delays in addition to other excuses, such as poor management and bad weather.
Airlines have paid passengers total compensation of around VND10 billion (US$450,000) since July for delayed flights after the Ministry of Transport issued a circular making such fines mandatory.
Exactly 2,057 or 13.8 per cent of the14,942 flights to and from Vietnam in August 2014 were delayed, according to the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam (CAAV).
