SINGAPORE, 10 March 2025: Airline scheduling databases indicate Vietnam Airlines plans to introduce two new routes to India serving Bengaluru and Hyderabad from the Vietnamese capital, Hanoi, effective May 2025.
Online airline schedule data sources show the airline posting four weekly flights on the Hanoi – Bengaluru route starting 1 May. Using A321 aircraft, flights will depart Hanoi on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
On 7 May, the airline will introduce a Hanoi – Hyderabad route using an A321 for three weekly flights departing Hanoi on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays.
However, it’s mums the word from the airline that keeps the lid firmly shut on sales and hasn’t opened bookings for the two destinations on any of its inhouse channels, including its direct-sell socials.
Skyscanner saves the day with flights on sale for both routes.
