Sky’s the limit: Vietnam Airlines unveils game-changing route connecting Da Nang and Bangkok
Vietnam Airlines soared into the limelight by inaugurating a direct route between Da Nang International Airport and Bangkok‘s Don Mueang International Airport. The airline’s bold move, announced yesterday, November 29, is set to revolutionise travel between these two dynamic destinations.
At the launch event, the Vietnamese Ambassador to Thailand, Phan Chi Thanh, expressed optimism about the prospects of the newly established route. He highlighted how this development will provide Thai tourists with a seamless journey from the heart of Bangkok to the enchanting cities of Da Nang, Hoi An, and Hue in Vietnam.
“This new route will create favourable conditions for Thai tourists to fly directly from Bangkok to Da Nang, exploring famous spots in Da Nang, Hoi An, and Hue cities as well as enjoying cuisine and unique cultural experiences in the localities.”
This strategic move aligns with the 10th anniversary of the Vietnam-Thailand strategic partnership, showcasing Vietnam Airlines’ commitment to strengthening ties between the two nations. The impetus for this aviation leap stemmed from talks between Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and his Thai counterpart Srettha Thavisin, during the high-profile week of the 78th United Nations General Assembly in New York.
Vice President of the Thai Senate, Supachai Somcharoen, hailed the new route as a historic milestone in aviation cooperation between Thailand and Vietnam. He emphasised that this development would not only enhance travel connectivity but also deepen the already robust relationship between the two nations, reported Vietnam Plus.
Dao Truong Luu, the head of the Vietnam Airlines representative office in Thailand, shared the exciting details of the flights. Departing at 8pm from Da Nang International Airport and at 5.05am from Don Mueang International Airport each day, travellers can expect a seamless journey aboard Airbus A321 aircraft.
As if this weren’t impressive enough, Vietnam Airlines continues to fortify its connectivity with seven daily direct flights linking the capitals of Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City with Bangkok. The airline’s dedication to facilitating smooth travel experiences remains unwavering.
