The TAT’s collaboration with Thai Vietjet Air envisions mutual benefit for both parties, and will also promote Thai Vietjet Air’s growing air links to Thailand and include joint travel agent and media familiarisation trips.
Thai Vietjet Air will operate the largest flight capacity between Vietnam and Thailand
Thai Vietjet Air will operate the largest flight capacity between Vietnam and Thailand when it doubles the frequency of its flights between Ho Chi Minh City and Bangkok – planned to happen this month – to up to six flights per week. The airline relaunched the route on 21 January, 2022, with twice weekly flights on Friday and Saturday.
Starting from 16 March, 2022, Thai Vietjet Air will increase air links between Cambodia and Thailand with the launch of a new Phnom Penh-Bangkok service. Also among Vietjet’s other regional routes to Thailand is a Taipei-Bangkok-Phuket service launched by Thai Vietjet Air on 30 November, 2021 – its first direct service from Taiwan to Thailand.
Domestically within Thailand, Thai Vietjet Air flies from Bangkok to numerous points around the country, including Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Phuket, Krabi, Hat Yai, Surat Thani, Udon Thani, and Ubon Ratchathani.
