The domestic terminal of Tan Son Nhat airport has been bustling since early morning. However, the number of passengers checking in for flights to other provinces is not as crowded as before Tet.

In front of the airline check-in counter, the security screening area, and inside the isolation area waiting to board the plane, there are no longer long lines of passengers.

In contrast, on the way to the domestic terminal, the number of passengers arriving was huge. The conveyor belts were packed with people waiting to get their checked baggage.
