Vietnam’s Northern Airports Authority has fined a Korean passenger VND4 million (US$180) for smoking on a flight to Hanoi.
Lee Byounghun was found smoking in the toilet of a Korean Air aircraft at 9:10 p.m., just 15 minutes before it was scheduled to land at Noi Bai International Airport in Hanoi.
The flight from Incheon took more than four and a half hours.
According to a Vietnam government decree, in-flight smoking is subject to a fine of up to VND5 million ($231).
