(Dan Tri) - Train and bus ticket promotions on BIDV SmartBanking not only save costs but also help customers experience quick and simple ticket booking during the upcoming Lunar New Year.
Train and bus tickets are hot during Tet holiday
With less than a month left until Lunar New Year, domestic airfares are high and scarce, causing many people to turn to buses and trains as a more flexible and economical travel solution.
Faced with great travel pressure during Tet, bus companies also have to increase operating frequency, making efforts to meet demand, giving passengers more options.
According to the Vietnam Railway Transport Joint Stock Company (VRT), after two months of selling train tickets for Tet, trips from the South to the North during the peak period from January 22 to January 26 (ie December 23-27) have sold over 137,000 tickets. The Railway Industry will organize 11 more trips from Saigon to Quang Ngai and Hanoi, providing 5,000 more seats to meet people's travel needs during the 2025 Lunar New Year.

Easily buy train and bus tickets and save up to 100,000 VND on BIDV SmartBanking
Accompanying customers traveling during the Lunar New Year 2025, BIDV SmartBanking has launched a train and bus promotion program. Specifically, from now until February 28, customers booking train and bus tickets on BIDV SmartBanking will receive an immediate discount of VND 100,000 for orders from VND 500,000 for long-distance routes or a 20% discount, up to VND 50,000 for regular routes.
With the above incentives, customers can save costs and easily book train and bus tickets for their Tet holiday travel. Currently, the Train/Bus Ticket feature on BIDV has connected the Vietnam Railway system and more than 900 bus companies from North to South, users can proactively choose suitable trains and buses, book tickets and experience a convenient and safe trip.
"This year, my family planned to take the train from Ho Chi Minh City to Hai Phong to celebrate Tet, but the initial cost was quite high. Thanks to the promotion on BIDV SmartBanking, the ticket price was significantly reduced, so I decided to book immediately. Now I can only work with peace of mind, prepare for Tet and wait for the day to reunite with my family," said Mr. Pham Van Hung (Tan Binh District, Ho Chi Minh City).
Also in the program, BIDV branches organized the giving of hundreds of gifts worth 1 million VND to workers in difficult circumstances in industrial parks in many provinces and cities such as Long An, Binh Duong, Ben Tre, Dong Nai, etc. The gifts include gift codes worth 1 million VND for customers when booking train and bus tickets and shopping for Tet gifts on the BIDV SmartBanking application, helping to share the burden of expenses and bring a warm and complete Tet holiday with family.
Mr. Nguyen Nhat Minh (27 years old), a worker far from home in Binh Duong, always worries about Tet because the cost of returning home is too high. Receiving a gift from BIDV, Mr. Minh was moved: "This year's Tet is very special. Thanks to the promotion from BIDV SmartBanking, I saved some money when booking a bus ticket home. With the discount, I can buy some more Tet gifts for my family. The trip also becomes easier because booking tickets is very easy and quick. Thank you BIDV SmartBanking for bringing meaningful benefits and promotions".
Tet is not only a journey home, but also a journey of love. With the message "With BIDV SmartBanking - Long distance becomes short" on North-South trains and bus routes, BIDV SmartBanking has been bringing thousands of cost-saving incentives, accompanying and sharing on every journey.
