VietJet Launches Flights To Brisbane

Vietjet will launch non-stop flights connecting Vietnam to Queensland in June following its announcement of two services between Ho Chi Minh City and Melbourne/Sydney in a month.  

Vietjet will operate twice weekly services between Ho Chi Minh City (SGN) and Brisbane Airport (BNE) from June 16, 2023, on every Monday and Friday. The flights from Ho Chi Minh City will take off at 10:05 (local time) and land in Brisbane at 21:10 (local time). The return flights will depart at 23:10 (local time) and arrive at 04:50 the following day (local time).

Vietjet’s Vice President Nguyen Thanh Son, said: “We are very excited to fly the first direct flights from Ho Chi Minh City to Queensland which is called the Sunshine state in Australia. The addition of Brisbane to our list of destinations would be another development to broadly connect Australia and Vietnam.

"Especially, with our recently introduced connecting services through Ho Chi Minh City and soon other Vietnamese hubs, Vietjet can bring more passengers from Asia and European countries to Australia.

"And vice versa, Australians now would find it easy and economical to fly across Asian nations across its vast network which serves Japan, Hong Kong, South Korea, Taiwan, mainland China, Thailand, India, Kazakhstan, etc. and other Vietnamese touristy coastal cities named Da Nang, Nha Trang and Phu Quoc. I believe that our services would be a catalyst for the further growth of tourism and trade between the two nations, and among the regions in the coming years.” 

The airline has a flight network covering around 450 flights daily on 160 routes throughout Vietnam and Vietnam with a variety of Asia Pacific destinations.

Vietjet will deploy the Airbus A330-300 onto the Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane routes with a configuration of 12 SkyBoss Business seats, and 365 seats in SkyBoss, Deluxe and Eco classes.  

The flights connecting Ho Chi Minh City to Melbourne, Tullamarine airport, will commence operation on April 8, 2023, and the flights linking Ho Chi Minh City with Sydney will be in service from April 12, 2023.
