Vietjet has officially launched a new direct route between Hanoi and Shanghai, marking a significant addition to its growing international flight network. This new daily service is part of the airline’s rapid expansion in China, including four new routes from Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City to both Beijing and Guangzhou.
Vietjet Vice President Nguyen Duc Thinh said, “This new service reflects our continued commitment to providing travellers with more convenient and affordable flight options to Vietnam from key destinations around the world. With five new routes between Vietnam and China launched this year alone, we are steadily expanding our international presence and opening new horizons for global connectivity.”
The new route to China is positioned as a convenient option for travellers heading to Shanghai and even to Beijing, Guangzhou, Xi’an, and Chengdu via Hanoi and/or Ho Chi Minh City, particularly for passengers from India. With Vietjet’s expanding network and competitive fares, these routes offer greater flexibility and more seamless connections for Indian travellers from New Delhi, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Kochi to Vietnam and across Asia-Pacific.
At the same time, Vietjet has strengthened its international flight network with the successful launch of non-stop services between Vietnam and Japan, connecting Ho Chi Minh City to Nagoya and Fukuoka. This expansion follows the introduction of direct flights from Hyderabad and Bengaluru to Ho Chi Minh City last month, along with four new China routes linking Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City with Beijing and Guangzhou.
Vietnam remains a top destination in Southeast Asia, known for its safety, warm hospitality, and diverse cultural and natural attractions. As the airline continues to modernise its fleet and expand its international footprint, Vietjet reaffirms its position as one of Asia-Pacific’s leading new-age carriers, making travel to Vietnam and beyond more accessible than ever.
