VietNamNet Bridge – The budget airline Vietjet has announced to increase the frequency of the HCM City - Singapore route from 30 May 2015.

Accordingly, the carrier will add an extra daily round trip to meet growing demand for low-cost air travel between the two sites.

With two round trips per day, the route will have a capacity of 5,040 seats per week, offering Vietjet’s passengers more choices when planning their travel itinerary.

The new schedule will now see Vietjet flights depart Tan Son Nhat International Airport in HCM City at 8.55am and 2.00pm (Vietnam time). Flights will depart Changi international airport every day at 1:50pm and 6:00pm (Singapore time). The flight duration is around two hours and five minutes.

Tickets can now be booked and purchased via www.vietjetair.com (also compatible on mobile phones) or by clicking on www.facebook.com/vietjetairvietnam (look for the “Booking” tab). Customers can also book tickets by visiting their nearest VietJet ticket outlet or calling 1900 1886.

In accordance with the airline’s expansion plans, Vietjet will welcome more new Airbus jets to its fleet this September. The airline operates 28 domestic and international routes with a fleet of 21 Airbus aircraft. 

To fulfill its slogan “Enjoy Flying!” every Vietjet aircraft features a comfy leather-covered seat so passengers can sit back, relax and order one of nine delicious hot meals, served by the airline’s famously fun and friendly flight attendants. An extensive snack menu is also available on every flight. Furthermore, passengers can purchase souvenirs from the in-flight Vietjet boutique or select luxury goods from the duty free shop, now available on all international flights.

Vietjet, the first privately owned airline in Vietnam, operates 150 flights per day, transporting ten million passengers in total so far. The airline covers 28 local and international routes across the country and the region, including Singapore, Thailand, South Korea, Taiwan, and Cambodia.
