Tuesday, 04 Mar, 2025 0

Vietnam leisure carrier Vietjet is set to launch the airline’s first ever route linking Vietnam and New Zealand.

Taking off in September 2025, Ho Chi Minh City to Auckland flights operate four times per week.

NZ Prime Minister Christopher Luxon visited Vietjet’s founder, Dr. Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao while in Vietnam.

Luxon said: “This strengthens the connectivity and the people-to-people links between our two countries. This enables lots of opportunities across the board, not just in tourism but also in trade and also in education.”

Additionally, Vetjet’s Aviation Academy and the International Aviation Academy of New Zealand (IAANZ) signed an agreement to collaborate on pilot training

Vietjet is also adding new international routes from Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi to Chinese cities Beijing and Guangzhou in the coming weeks.
