Vietjet continues to soar to new heights with the addition of a direct route linking Ho Chi Minh City and Xi’an, China. Building on its recent successes with Shanghai and Chengdu services, Vietjet is set to be the first airline to connect Vietnam’s bustling economic center to China’s historic capital, Xi’an. This direct flight promises passengers increased travel options, shorter journey times, and cost savings.
Commencing on April 29, 2024, the Ho Chi Minh City – Xi’an route will operate with four return flights per week. Departing from Ho Chi Minh City on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays at 20:05 local time, travelers will touch down at Xi’an Xianyang International Airport at 01:30 the following day local time. Return flights from Xi’an to Ho Chi Minh City will operate on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, departing at 02:30 local time and arriving in Ho Chi Minh City at 06:25 local time.
Xi’an, the capital of Shaanxi Province in China’s Northwestern region, holds a significant place in history as an ancient city that served as the capital for thirteen dynasties. Renowned for its role as a pivotal point on the Silk Road, Xi’an boasts cultural treasures such as the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, the Great Wild Goose Pagoda, and Datang Furong Park.
Meanwhile, Ho Chi Minh City stands as Vietnam’s vibrant financial, cultural, and tourism hub. Travelers can savor authentic Vietnamese cuisine including Pho and Banh Mi, and explore the city’s rich cultural heritage before connecting to other popular destinations such as Da Nang, Phu Quoc, and Hue.
To celebrate the launch of this new route and to uphold its commitment to affordable travel, Vietjet is rolling out a special Friday sale with fares starting as low as USD0 for travel until December 31, 2024.
