VietJetAir launches new route to Bangkok and offers free seats

(Ho Chi Minh City, 8 April, 2013) – VietjetAir has commenced sales for its second international route connecting Vietnam capital Hanoi to Bangkok. The new connection will open on June 1, 2013. The carrier, on this occasion, is launching another mega sale for flights between Bangkok and Ho Chi Minh City/ Hanoi with tickets starting at USD0 (*). Bookings can be made from April 10 to April 20, 2013 for travel between April 15 and December 20, 2013. All you have to do is click on www.vietjetair.com and follow the easy-to-use booking steps.

VietjetAir currently operates a daily round trip between Ho Chi Minh City and Bangkok with the Hanoi-Bangkok connection to be operated at the same frequency. The new route will depart from Hanoi at 10:50am and land in Bangkok at 12:40am. The return flight will depart from Suvarnabhumi airport at 1:35pm and arrive at Noi Bai International Airport at 3.25pm.

Now Vietnam's fastest growing airline, VietjetAir is proud to offer valued customers high-quality flights with friendly services and maximum safety. Passengers will be able to enjoy Vietnamese and Thai specialties and other entertaining inflight activities while relaxing in a comfy, leather seat.

The carrier is also positioned to also make itself more favorable by operating flights in and out of Suvarnabhumi Airport – one of the most modern and prestigious airports in the world, from which passengers can easily access downtown Bangkok and/or take transit flights to the rest of the world. Most budget airlines fly in and out of Bangkok's Don Mueng Airport, which is less convenient to access.

Desmond Lin, VietjetAir's Business Development Director, said: "We are delighted to soon introduce our second international flight connecting Bangkok and Hanoi – as ever we will highlight the fun side of Vietnam to the Thai market and help residents of Vietnam better access Bangkok, one of the greatest cities in Asia. Our mega sale will last for 10 days so you can book your free tickets anytime and anywhere – you don't even need a computer as bookings can now be made via mobile devices."

VietjetAir's highly affordable flights have helped the airline rapidly expand its domestic network, which now covers nine destinations. Besides the Hanoi – Bangkok route, the carrier will also add one more domestic flight to the schedule connecting Ho Chi Minh City and Buon Ma Thuot (to be launched on May 20, 2013).

With more than 300 flights a week (all operated by brand new Airbus A320 aircraft), VietjetAir will add more connections to major cities around Asia in 2013.
