At the same time, the Ho Chi Minh City - Manila flight schedule will also be adjusted to better meet passenger demand.
Vietnam Airlines increases the frequency of flights on the Hanoi - Manila route to daily.
Specifically, Vietnam Airlines will increase the frequency of flights from Hanoi to Manila from 3 flights/week to 7 flights/week, corresponding to a schedule of 1 flight/day. The flight schedule from Ho Chi Minh City to Manila will be adjusted to 4 flights/week on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays. Thus, from April 2025, the total number of flights between Vietnam and the Philippines will increase to 11 flights/week, facilitating travel and trade needs between the two countries.
Mr. Dang Anh Tuan, Deputy General Director of Vietnam Airlines, shared: From June 2024, Vietnam Airlines will be the first Vietnamese airline to operate a direct flight connecting Vietnam and the Philippines. After nearly a year of operation, the flight route between Vietnam and the Philippines has affirmed its role as a transportation bridge and an important driving force to promote economic, tourism and cultural cooperation between the two countries.
The increase in frequency of flights between Hanoi and Manila demonstrates Vietnam Airlines’ commitment to providing maximum convenience to passengers, while also affirming Vietnam’s position on the regional aviation map. We believe that with this development, the bilateral relationship between Vietnam and the Philippines will become increasingly stronger, opening up many new opportunities for both sides.
The Philippines is a potential market for Vietnam Airlines. In 2024, the number of Filipino visitors to Vietnam increased by 73.6% compared to the previous year, while the number of Vietnamese visitors to the Philippines also reached nearly 60,000, according to data from the Philippine Department of Tourism. These figures show great prospects for developing tourism and trade between the two countries.
The increase in flight frequency also marks an important step forward in the connection between the two countries. This event is even more meaningful as it takes place on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of Vietnam Airlines Corporation, demonstrating the airline’s continuous efforts over the past three decades to connect Vietnam with the world.
It is expected that in 2025, Vietnam Airlines will open and restore 15 new international routes to important destinations such as Italy, Russia, Denmark, China, India, Japan, Korea, UAE..., providing more options and convenient experiences for passengers.
