No-frills airline to run direct flights from Da Nang, Ho Chi Minh City to Busan

Travelers from Vietnam’s major cities of Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang can take direct flights to Busan, a famous beach city in South Korea, from next month onward.

The services will be available from July 20 and July 25, respectively, no-frills carrier Vietjet said in a press release on Sunday.

The airline will operate one daily direct flight for each route to bring passengers from Vietnam to Busan on less-than-five-hour flights.

Vietjet relaunched the Hanoi - Busan route on July 1 and will continue resuming the Nha Trang – Busan service from July 21, with one daily return flight for each service.

Customers can book tickets now with fares starting at just VND7,700 (US$0.33) per direction for travels from August 15, 2022 to March 26, 2023, with terms and conditions applied.

Customers will soon be able to opt for the ‘Fly Now - Pay Later’ program easily with only three minutes of online registration for international routes.

“New routes from Da Nang, Nha Trang, Hanoi, and Ho Chi Minh City to Busan will increase Vietjet’s total routes between the two countries to 10,” said Nguyen Thanh Son, vice-president of the airline.

“Vietjet’s direct routes between Vietnam and South Korea offer diverse flight options and cost-saving fares for travelers from this summer to enjoy flying to their favorite destinations.”

Busan is a beautiful port city and well known for its beaches, temples, unique colored Gamcheon cultural village, and romantic Haeundae Dalmaji Hill, among other hidden gems.

It also has all good places to meet the need of every shopaholic and foodie.

Along with four direct routes to Busan, Vietjet currently operates six routes from Vietnam to Seoul.

The Ho Chi Minh City/Hanoi/Da Nang - Seoul (Incheon) routes have increased to twice daily return flights for each service.

The Phu Quoc/Nha Trang/Hai Phong - Seoul (Incheon) routes operate one daily return flight.

While South Korea has resumed the issuance of short-term travel visas to international visitors, Korean travelers can enjoy visa exemption for a stay of up to 15 days in Vietnam.

International visitors are subject to neither COVID-19 tests nor health declaration upon arrival in Vietnam.
