Today, at Tan Son Nhat Airport (Ho Chi Minh City), Vietjet held a jubilant inaugural ceremony to celebrate the debut of the airline’s Ho Chi Minh City – Phuket (Thailand) route. On the inaugural flight, passengers were thrilled to receive lovely, surprise gifts from Vietjet.

Prior to that, Vietjet also welcomed the first flight of the Ho Chi Minh City – Chiang Mai (Thailand) route, which arrived to great excitement of both passengers and onlookers. Both these new routes serve the transportation and travel demands of locals and tourists while contributing to the promotion of trading and integration in the region. With the two new routes, Vietjet now operates six flights to “the Land of Smiles” from Vietnam.
