“Company activities regained positive changes due to the fact the pandemic was gradually brought under control. Simultaneously, the company had restructured its financial investment,” Vietravel said.
However, Vietravel reported an accumulated loss of more than VND256 billion for the whole 2021, tripling year-on-year, as its core activities of tourism and aviation suffered from Covid-19.
At the end of last year, Vietravel had sold a 55.58 percent stake in Vietravel Airlines to an unspecified investor as it seeks more funding amid Covid financial pressures.
