The Guiyang - Hanoi (KWE - HAN) route is operated by Colorful Guizhou Airlines with a frequency of 3 round-trip flights per week, on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, with an estimated departure time of about 10:25, using A320 aircraft. If it used to take about 12 hours to get to Guiyang by road, the direct flight from Hanoi to Guiyang now takes only about 2 hours.
With the opening of Colorful Guizhou Airlines' flight route to Hanoi, at Noi Bai International Airport, there are now a total of more than 52 international and domestic airlines (including passenger and cargo airlines) licensed by the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam to operate, connecting the capital Hanoi to the network of airports in Vietnam and most regions and continents in the world.

With an average double-digit growth rate in passenger transport volume, there are currently an average of about 35,000 international passengers arriving/departing via Noi Bai every day, a complete recovery and equivalent to the period before the COVID-19 pandemic.
Colorful Guizhou Airlines is a Chinese airline headquartered in Guiyang, Guizhou, founded in 2015, with a fleet of 20 aircraft (including Embraer E190 and Airbus A320). The airline focuses on domestic routes, covering destinations within Guizhou as well as other provinces in China. The airline's route network is designed to facilitate the development of Guizhou as a tourism and economic center.
By choosing Hanoi as the airline's first international destination, the opening of a direct flight from Guizhou to Hanoi will create conditions for tourists from Guizhou to visit the capital Hanoi and neighboring provinces in the North, while also creating more opportunities for the capital's residents to have more choices when designing short-term tours.
With just a 2-hour flight, passengers can set foot in Thien Ho Miao Village - the largest Miao village in China and the world; visit Gia Tu Pagoda - an iconic structure that has existed for more than 400 years, located on a small island on the Nam Minh River; admire Hoang Qua Thu Waterfall - considered one of the most beautiful waterfalls in China, with a height of 67 meters and a width of 83 meters, surrounded by majestic mountain ranges...
At 10:25 a.m. the same day, flight GY702 HAN-KWE carrying 160 passengers from Hanoi to Guiyang took off safely at Noi Bai airport.
