Vietjet voted one of Asia’s best budget airlines by readers of Smart Travel Asia

Ho Chi Minh City, 23 October, 2014 – It was announced today that the readers of Smart Travel Asia have voted Vietjet as the ninth Best Budget Airline in all of Asia. Vietjet is in good company with some of the region’s most established airlines such as AirAsia, Cebu Pacific and Tiger Airways also in the top 10.

Smart Travel Asia is the region’s most dedicated online travel magazine with over one million readers worldwide. For the SmartTravelAsia.com 2014 Best in Travel Poll – now in its 10th year – only the most knowledgeable voters with substantial hands-on travel experience can take part (voters took on average 12 annual air trips in the region). The votes were cast from May to July 2014. 

“We are truly delighted to be named as one of Asia’s best budget airlines by Smart Travel Asia’s well-traveled readers,” said Mr. Luu Duc Khanh, Managing Director of Vietjet. “With more and more tourists discovering Vietjet’s incredible fares and amazing services, thanks to our growing international network, we hope that we will continue to win their support in future.” 

Smart Travel Asia is an incredible resource for global travelers with an abundance of information on tourism experiences, air services, hotels, resorts, and tourist attractions—as many as 86% of Smart Travel Asia’s readers say the website helps them make travel decisions.

Meanwhile Vietjet is on something of a roll. In September 2014, the airline was also named one of the “Top 10 most famous brands in Vietnam 2014” by the International Intellectual Property Institute and Vietnam Science and Entrepreneurs’ Union.

Moving forward, Vietjet will soon receive three more brand new, modern Airbus aircraft, helping the airline to expand its network and offer travelers even more flying opportunities at the best possible fares across Asia. 

On every Vietjet flight, customers can sit back and relax in a comfortable leather seat and order one of nine delicious meals or choose one of the airline’s amazing souvenirs (available from the inflight store). All of Vietjet’s international flights also now feature Duty Free shopping.
