TLDR : Answer Summary

Vietnam plans to resume 8 international flights per week from Japan and Korea starting September 15, requiring quarantine for all passengers. This move has sparked discussions about international travel trends in the region, particularly in relation to Thailand's own quarantine measures.

that's only around 20,000 people per month, if that. similar scale to thailand's quarantine scheme. pre-coronophobia, vietnam had 1,500,000 international arrivals per month.

Even for the Phuket scheme that hasn't been approved yet, it still requires applying for a COE at an embassy and being approved before you can book a flight.

the latest i heard on the plan for the scheme for phuket (plus other locations to be confirmed) was very similar to this (basically anyone from japan, korea, and also the uk, denmark, germany, and hong kong) can come if they manage to get a flight (and book a return flight more than 30 days later) but either way the numbers are tiny, because of the limited quarantine capacity (i guess that's the bottleneck in vietnam too).

This doesn't include those who had work permits and TRC's though. Anyone with a TRC could get a letter from their company and be repatriated during this time, and did NOT have to pay for quarantine.

These additional commercial flights if I understand if correctly are for anyone.
