VietJet Air launches new route from Saigon to Hai Phong

• VietJet Air, the Vietnamese low-cost airline that launched operations at the end of last year, has added yet another domestic route to its network on 4 September. From Ho Chi Minh City (SGN) in southern Vietnam, the airline now serves Hai Phong (HPH), in the north of the country and the nation’s third-largest city, with daily flights. The operator of 180-seat A320s faces competition from Vietnam Airlines’ four flights a day and Jetstar Pacific’s twice-daily services.
