[Asia Economy Reporter Yoo Hyun-seok] Incheon International Airport Corporation announced on the 17th that it has successfully completed COVID-19 infectious disease crisis response consulting for Phu Quoc Airport in Vietnam.


The corporation held the "Vietnam Phu Quoc Airport Consulting Closing Ceremony" online in a non-face-to-face format on the 8th at the corporation's conference room. The ceremony celebrated the successful conclusion of the two-week online consulting conducted from the 22nd of last month to the 8th.


This consulting was arranged at the continuous request of the Vietnam Airports Corporation, satisfied with the "Incheon Airport K-Airport Quarantine Consulting" conducted for Hanoi Airport last November.


The corporation is accelerating the export of K-Airport quarantine based on Incheon Airport's excellent quarantine cases such as ▲the first Asia-Pacific international airport council (ACI) airport quarantine certification acquisition ▲operation of COVID-19 testing centers ▲establishment of smart quarantine infrastructure, and the overseas airport consulting program it developed independently called the "Safety and Health Corridor Initiative," which is based on international airport quarantine standards.


In particular, consulting was conducted mainly in regions with high Korean tourist demand such as Indonesia, Vietnam, and Thailand. Along with exporting airport quarantine, it is leading the creation of a safe travel environment in the post-COVID era. Moreover, during the consulting process, domestic quarantine equipment installed and operated at Incheon Airport, such as COVID-19 negative test certificate issuance machines, was introduced, greatly helping domestic companies to open overseas market channels. In April, quarantine consulting is scheduled for Tan Son Nhat International Airport, the gateway to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, known as the Paris of the East.


At the Phu Quoc Airport consulting closing ceremony, Nguyen Duc Hung, Vice President of Vietnam Airports Corporation, said, "We plan to actively adopt the excellent quarantine cases of Incheon Airport and customized improvement solutions for Phu Quoc Airport received during this consulting into airport operations to create an environment where Korean tourists can travel safely."



Kim Kyung-wook, President of Incheon International Airport Corporation, said, "With the government's announcement of quarantine exemption for overseas arrivals, an increase in overseas travel demand is expected. By transferring Incheon Airport's excellent quarantine capabilities to major overseas airports with high domestic travel demand, we will strive to create a safe travel environment in the post-COVID era."
