Vietnam to Halt Flights at Four Airports as Storm Trami Nears

Vietnamese authorities are preparing to suspend operations at four airports in its central provinces as the country braces for Tropical Storm Trami, which already brought death and destruction to the Philippines.

Trami is set to hit central Vietnam from Saturday to Monday, bringing heavy rain, strong winds and potential flooding. The storm development is “complicated” and will poses high risks to airports, the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam said in a statement. The airports, which include Phu Bai International Airport, will be closed from Sunday morning and reopen later that day or Monday.
