Vietjet Air launches six weekly scheduled flights to Delhi from 6 December 2019 onwards. These flights include three weekly flights from Ho Chi Minh City to Delhi on Fridays, Sundays and Wednesdays and from Hanoi to Delhi on Saturdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays using Airbus A320 aircraft.

The inaugural flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Delhi takes off on 6 December 2019. On this day, flight VJ895 departs from Ho Chi Minh City to Delhi at 7 pm, arrives in Delhi at 10.50 pm before leaving Delhi for Ho Chi Minh City at 11.50 pm and touching down in Ho Chi Minh City at 6.10 am on 7 December 2019 under flight VJ896.

On 7 December 2019, the first flight from Hanoi to Delhi proceeds at 7.10 pm, flight VJ971, arrives in Delhi at 10.50 pm before taking off from Delhi for Hanoi at 11.50 pm and arriving in Hanoi at 5.20 am under flight VJ972 on 8 December 2019.

At press time, the first flight of VJ895 is more than 80 per cent booked whereas Vietjet Air is selling seats onboard the inaugural flight of VJ971 from 39.41 SGD per Eco fare excluding service fee and airport tax.

India is a relatively untapped huge tourism market for Vietnam. Currently, there are only direct flights from Kolkata to Ho Chi Minh City operated by IndiGo. 

From 6 December 2019, Vietjet Air has also connecting flights from Hanoi to Delhi via Ho Chi Minh City which requires change of aircraft type from A321 to A320 in Ho Chi Minh City.
