In order to carry out the campaign to promote Vietnam tourism as a safe, friendly and attractive destination, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has proposed 14 urgent solutions on information and tourism promotion in some key markets that will be implemented from now until March 2015. In particular, the Ministry has informed about free travel packages for international tourists to explore Vietnam from June to September 2014; organized Presstrip delegations for the above companies to some key tourist localities to see that Vietnam is a safe, attractive and friendly destination, where people show their patriotism and culture.

At the same time, the Ministry will invite and welcome a number of Fam trip and Presstrip delegations for travel businesses and foreign press from key and potential markets (Japan, Korea, Russia, Singapore, Taiwan...) to introduce safe and attractive destinations; promote and advertise tourism; strengthen cooperation and exchange. From June to August 2014, promote domestic tourism communication to attract more Vietnamese people to travel...

In order to attract more tourists, especially international tourists, the tourism industry in each locality is also strengthening tourism promotion and advertising; at the same time, paying attention to creating unique tourism products of their own locality... It is known that the Ho Chi Minh City Tourism Association has asked businesses to focus on upgrading customer services and tourism products to meet the increasing demands of international tourists. In the near future, Ho Chi Minh City will ask the top 100 hotels to participate in the tourism stimulus program, reducing tour prices to attract domestic tourists to travel, as well as encourage international visitors to come to Vietnam.

Da Nang City is also strengthening the promotion and advertising of Da Nang tourism in potential international markets such as Korea, Japan, and Russia by participating in fairs, welcoming Farmtrip and presstrip groups, and promoting new flight routes.

Da Nang also cooperates with airlines such as Vietnam Airlines, Air Asia, Korean Air to open new routes such as Japan-Da Nang, Da Nang-Busan (expected frequency of 2 flights/week), reopening the Malaysia-Da Nang route (4 flights/week).

In addition, the city also coordinates with the General Department of Tourism to promote the image of Da Nang abroad through campaigns to promote Vietnamese tourism, regularly update tourism information for foreign visitors, and have support policies for visitors.
