An aircraft operated by SPA

A full-service turning point for the route

The direct flight between Phú Quốc and Singapore is currently one of the region's most vibrant international routes, operated daily by low-cost carriers. SPA's official ticket launch on May 20 (with the maiden flight scheduled for July 25, 2026, at a frequency of one flight per day) is more than just an increase in flight options. It represents a strategic move to fill the gap in the mid-to-high-end market segment.

As the first full-service airline to spread its wings on this route, SPA introduces an entirely new standard of travel. Passengers will enjoy a comprehensive, all-inclusive service on every flight, including hot meals, standard checked baggage, and a modern wireless In-Flight Entertainment (IFE) system.

Notably, the Business Class cabin, featuring private spaces, premium seating, and priority privileges, will perfectly meet the stringent demands of business travellers and upscale tourists from Singapore, who place a high value on comfort and a seamless experience throughout their journey.

To celebrate the launch, SPA is rolling out a special promotion for the Phú Quốc–Singapore route, with fares starting from just VND 1,793,000 one-way. This promotional rate applies to flights departing within one month from the maiden flight date.

Additionally, passengers booking the Singapore–Phú Quốc leg will enjoy a 20 per cent discount on the base fare for tickets purchased between May 20 and June 19, 2026.

Furthermore, when flying with the airline, travellers will receive complimentary Sun World Hon Thom cable car tickets and exclusive discounts of up to 30 per cent on accommodation, dining, spa, and entertainment services within the Sun Group ecosystem in southern Phú Quốc.

Sun PhuQuoc Airways’ presence in Singapore opens a major gateway for Phú Quốc to access a large influx of international tourists.

A journey connecting two of Asia's leading resort islands

The addition of a nonstop service by a new carrier carries profound meaning for the connection between these two iconic travel islands. While Singapore stands as a modern city-state and one of the region's busiest financial and aviation hubs, Phú Quốc boasts pristine beauty, a mild climate, and world-class luxury resorts. This perfect complementarity allows travellers to effortlessly find a balance between a fast-paced lifestyle and an isolated vacation retreat, all within a flight time of under two hours.

Thanks to its visa-free policy for all international tourists, Phú Quốc is becoming an ideal destination for short weekend getaways for Singapore residents as well as the expatriate community working there. Data from Skyscanner reveals that searches for Phú Quốc from users in Singapore have surged by 184 per cent compared to the same period last year, propelling Phú Quốc to the number two spot on the list of trending destinations for 2026.

Moreover, as a massive transit hub welcoming up to 70 million passengers annually, a presence at Changi Airport opens a major gateway for Phú Quốc to directly access premium international tourist flows from all over the world.

The competitive edge of SPA on this route comes not only from its premium in-flight service but is also backed by a synchronised ground strategy.

Sun Group's takeover of operations at Phú Quốc International Airport, alongside its partnership with Changi Airports International (CAI) - the entity that propelled Changi to be named the 'World's Best Airport' for 14 consecutive years - is gradually turning the 'airport destination' model into reality.

This alignment of service standards from Changi Airport to SPA's full-service flights, through Phú Quốc International Airport, and finally to Sun Group's 5-star resort ecosystem promises a seamless, world-class journey for travellers.

In a climate of fluctuating global travel costs, the on-schedule network expansion of a full-service carrier demonstrates SPA's robust operational capability and long-term vision under its 'Rise to Asia' strategy, steadily driving Phú Quốc towards its position as a new trade and tourism gateway for the region.
