HÀ NỘI — Vietjet will resume regular international flight routes connecting Việt Nam to Bangkok, Tokyo, Seoul and Taipei from this month, the airline announced on Friday.

This move is made as COVID-19 vaccines have been widely injected around the world, Vietjet said in a statement.

Flights from HCM City to Bangkok are scheduled to depart every Friday while flights on the Hà Nội-Seoul route are slated for departure starting April 15

Flights from Hà Nội to Tokyo are expected to take off on April 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 19, 20, 23, 26, 29 and 30. Flights from Hà Nội to Taipei are scheduled to depart on April 11.

Specific flight schedules and tickets are available on Vietjet's official sales channels at the website vietjetair.com, the Vietjet Air mobile app, official Facebook page at facebook.com/vietjetvietnam, ticket offices and official agents.

According to current regulations of various countries and territories, flights from Việt Nam will only serve passengers who meet immigration regulations and those who are Vietnamese people to study, work, visit relatives, or foreigners returning home from Việt Nam.

Vietjet suggested passengers seek information at the embassies and diplomatic agencies of related countries to complete procedures and papers in accordance with regulations of the countries to make the immigration processes faster and more efficient.

According to Vietjet, flights carrying passengers into Việt Nam from other countries will continue to comply with the regulations of the Government, according to plans allocated by the Civil Aviation Authority and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

In a separate move, Vietjet said it would continue to accompany Miss World Vietnam as the official air transportation sponsor of the beauty pageant.

The winner of Miss World Vietnam 2021 will be awarded a year of free flights with the SkyBoss fare type and be invited to participate in special cultural and artistic events at an altitude of 10,000 metres with Vietjet. 

Under the theme 'Vitality of Vietnam', the activities of this year's contest will aim at the human values, compassion, inspiration and positive energy of a safe and recovering Viet Nam in 2021. The journey to conquer the prestigious pageant crown takes place from September to November 2021. — VNS
