Vietjet Air launches Singapore-Phu Quoc direct air route

This is Vietjet Air's fourth direct air routes between the two countries, joining existing routes between Singapore and three of Viet Nam's centrally-run cities: Ho Chi Minh City, Ha Noi, and Da Nang.

Phu Quoc island is well-known for pristine beaches, mild climate, and ample accommodation options ranging from the budget-friendly to ultra-luxurious. Additionally, the island offers a diverse range of experiences, including modern amusement parks, and safari experiences.

The latest route is expected to not only boost tourism but also strengthen economic, trade, and cultural cooperation between the two nations.

Vietjet Air will operate the new route with four flights per week, bringing the total number of weekly flights between Viet Nam and Singapore to 78.

On the occasion, Vietjet Air and Carlyle Aviation Partners signed a US$300 million financing agreement to support the purchase of aircraft scheduled for delivery between 2025 and 2026.

The deal will help Viejet Air to get over additional 400 new aircrafts to expand its fleet.

Vietjet Air and Satair, an Airbus Group subsidiary, penned a cooperation deal on the use of Integrated Material Services (IMS), a comprehensive material supply solution for Vietjet's entire fleet of Airbus A320 and A330 aircraft./.
