BANGKOK -- Myanmar Airways International is starting regular international service to Vietnam, the United Arab Emirates and other destinations, seeking to meet demand from both tourists and Myanmar nationals working abroad.

The airline in September began operating round-trip flights between Yangon and Dubai and Hanoi twice a week, and Ho Chi Minh City once a week. Nonstop service to the Thai resort of Phuket is slated to begin soon.
