Russia is opening a non-stop air route from Chelyabinsk, a city located along the European and Asian border, to Cam Ranh Airport in central Viet Nam. The new route, which will begin soon, aims to bring more Russian tourists to the famous resort town of Nha Trang in Khanh Hoa Province.

In late 2010, Vladivostok Air, the largest carrier in Russia's far eastern region, also launched two routes from Vladivostok and Khabarovsk to Cam Ranh. Flights, however, have not been regular.-VNS
