Lao Airlines
Lao Airlines, which has changed its name from Lao Aviation, says it will now put more focus on improving its domestic service, especially the Vientiane-Luang Prabang route, which is heavily used by tourists, while maintaining its international flights at the same level.

Officials of Lao Airlines, which is currently flying five international routes to Kunming, Siem Riep, Hanoi, Bangkok, and Chiengmai, also say airfare will soon increase to reflect the increased fuel price on the world market.
