HCM City (VNA) – Vietnam’s low-cost carrier Vietjet Air on December 15 held a jubilant ceremony to celebrate the debut of its two routes connecting Ho Chi Minh City and Thailand’s tourist destinations of Phuket and Chiang Mai.
The ceremony was attended by Ambassador of Thailand to Vietnam Manopchai Vongphakdi and leaders of the Aviation Administration of Vietnam, the Culture, Sport and Tourism Department of Ho Chi Minh City, among others.
The new routes are expected to meet increasing travel demand of both sides, making contribution to promoting regional trade and integration.
The Ho Chi Minh City – Phuket route operates a return flight every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday with around two hours per leg. Flights depart Ho Chi Minh City at 10:15 and arrive in Phuket at 12:10. Return flights take off at 13:05 in Phuket and lands in Ho Chi Minh City at 15:10.
Meanwhile, the Ho Chi Minh City – Chiang Mai route operates a return flight every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday with a flight time of just under two hours per leg. Flights depart Ho Chi Minh City at 11:35 and arrive in Chiang Mai at 13:30. Return flights take off at 14:20 in Chiang Mai and land in Ho Chi Minh City at 16:25.
By opening two more new routes, Vietjet now operates six flights to Thailand - “the Land of Smiles” from Vietnam.
Aiming to become a leading consumer airline, Vietjet has continually opened new routes while adding brand-new aircraft to its fleet, investing in modern technology and offering more added-on services and products to serve all customers’ demands. Since its establishment just a few years ago, Vietjet has continuously contributed to the community and created flying opportunities for tens of millions of domestic and international passengers. -VNA
