VietJetAir prepares for a long, hot summer of amazing holidays

(Ho Chi Minh City – 22 March, 2013) – Vietnam's fastest growing airline is picking up the pace as summertime approaches by adding an extra 1,600 extra flights – equivalent to 300,000 seats – to better serve passengers travelling from mid-May until the end of August..

Now officially Vietnam’s largest budget airline, VietjetAir has become known as the fun friendly choice for holidaymakers travelling to some of the country’s most famous beach and holiday destinations

Desmond Lin, Business Development Manager of VietJetAir, said: “The holiday begins once you go on board one of our flights. Our dynamic and professional cabin crew always ensures our valued customers have a comfortable, entertaining and memorable flight – that’s the VietjetAir way.”

The Hanoi - Danang route will go from two to three round trips per day, meanwhile flights from Ho Chi Minh City to Nha Trang, Phu Quoc, Vinh and Haiphong will double (from one to two round trips) from May 20 to August 31, 2013.

During the summer period, VietjetAir will be opening a new route from Hanoi to Nha Trang, one of the country’s most famous beach destinations, starting with two round trips per day. There will also soon be a daily flight from Ho Chi Minh City and the coffee capital of Vietnam, Buon Ma Thuot in the Central Highlands.
