The national flag carrier, Vietnam Airlines, has launched a direct route
linking Ho Chi Minh City and Jakarta in Indonesia. Flights are scheduled for
every Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday.
The inaugural flight, carrying
143 passengers, landed at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport, Jakarta on
December 2.
It is the first direct air link
between Vietnam and Indonesia and the second new international route Vietnam
Airlines has offered this year.
Addressing the opening flight’s
landing ceremony, Vietnamese Ambassador to Indonesia Nguyen Xuan Thuy stressed
the importance of the direct route between Ho Chi Minh City and Jakarta for the
cities and Vietnam and Indonesia .
The connection not only serves
the growing demand for transport between both nations, but contributes to
strengthening bilateral relations and boosting ASEAN connectivity and
integration towards an ASEAN Community aviation market by 2015, Thuy said.
On the occasion, Vietnam Airlines
offered special discounts on HCM City-Jakarta and HCM City-Jakarta-Bali routes.
