Vietnam Airlines has just announced a sharp increase in the number of flights during the 6 peak days (from August 29 to September 3). Specifically, during the holiday, Vietnam Airlines will provide nearly 600,000 seats across its entire flight network, equivalent to nearly 2,900 flights, an increase of more than 100,000 seats compared to last year.
Airlines recommend passengers to use self-check-in before flights to save time.
On the domestic flight network, the airline focuses on increasing the frequency of flights between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang; between Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Cam Ranh, Da Lat, Hue... The airline's total number of domestic seats reaches nearly 418,000 seats, equivalent to more than 2,100 flights, an increase of 30% over the same period in 2024.
The international routes with the most increased flights are between Vietnam and India, China, Thailand, and Australia. The total number of international seats reached nearly 177,000, equivalent to more than 760 flights, an increase of 18% compared to last year.
Vietnam Airlines representative said that currently, key domestic tourism routes recorded occupancy rates of nearly 60% and are forecast to continue to increase rapidly in the coming time. Flights to India, China, Thailand, and Australia also achieved positive results with occupancy rates of 60 - 70%.
Increasing the number of seats available during the peak period of National Day on September 2 is a great effort by the national airline in the context of the aviation industry's shortage of aircraft due to the impact of manufacturers recalling engines for inspections globally. Vietnam Airlines has proactively leased more aircraft, increasing its transport capacity to meet passenger travel needs.
In addition, on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day September 2, Vietnam Airlines launched a special promotion program. When purchasing tickets on August 19, September 1 and September 2, passengers will receive an e-voucher for a direct discount of VND 290,000 when purchasing a premium economy ticket and VND 198,000 when purchasing a flexible economy ticket.
