Following government approval, Vietjet will resume regular international flights from January 1, 2022. The resumed services are from Hanoi/Ho Chi Minh City to Tokyo (Narita International Airport), Seoul (Incheon International Airport), Taipei, Singapore, and Bangkok (Suvarnabhumi International Airport). The airline says for the first phase starting January 1, 2022, each service will operate one round trip per week with increasing frequencies in line with actual travel demand and government’s approval to ensure safe operations and effective disease prevention. In the next phase, Vietjet is planning to reopen its entire international flights while looking to open new routes to India and Russia, and beyond. The airline says the services' detailed flight schedules will be updated on Vietjet’s official website www.vietjetair.com, Vietjet Air mobile apps and Facebook page www.facebook.com/vietjetvietnam, at booking offices and official agencies. Vietjet urges passengers to follow localities’ regulations on disease prevention and control, and immigration regulations of countries including vaccine passports, negative tests, quarantine, and accommodation. Passengers are able to make entry and exit declarations on the website www.vietjetair.com at the Entry Declaration section and manage the information via QR code. The airline says it has thoroughly prepared for the resumption of regular international flights, which are operated by the state-of-the-art A321 and A330 fleet. Vietjet is a member of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) with the IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) certificate. As Vietnam’s largest private carrier, the airline was awarded the highest ranking for safety with 7 stars in 2018 and 2019 by the world’s only safety and product rating website airlineratings.com and listed as one of the world's 50 best airlines for strong financing and operations by Airfinance Journal in 2018 and 2019. The airline has also been named as Best Low-Cost Carrier by renowned organizations such as Skytrax, CAPA, Airline Ratings, and many others.
