In a statement, the airline highlighted that the new routes aim to provide convenient travel options for both locals and tourists, while promoting greater exploration of Japan’s cultural heritage.

The HCM City-Nagoya route commenced operations on April 24 with four round-trip flights per week. Meanwhile, the HCM City-Fukuoka service launched on April 25, offering three round-trip flights weekly.

With the addition of these new connections, Vietjet now operates 138 weekly flights between Vietnam and Japan, serving key cities including Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Fukuoka and Hiroshima. The expansion marks a significant step in Vietjet’s strategy to broaden its international flight network.

Nagoya, a bustling commercial and industrial centre, is famed for its modern architecture and dynamic urban energy. In contrast, Fukuoka, situated on the southern island of Kyushu, captivates visitors with its ancient temples, lush parks and historical landmarks.

These new routes not only link major Japanese cities but also provide travellers with rich cultural experiences and diverse opportunities.

In the reverse direction, passengers from Japan now have greater access to HCM City, Vietnam’s economic and cultural heart, renowned for its vibrant street food scene and energetic atmosphere. From there, travellers can easily connect to other destinations via Vietjet’s growing domestic and international flight network.
