New airline route between Vietnam and London to be launched by Vietnam Airline

 

Response to the increase of people traveling between Vietnam and England, the National carrier Vietnam Airlines has planed to launch direct flights from Ha Noi and Ho Chi Minh City to London by the end of this year. This airline route comes from Vietnam airline’s purpose to expand the route network and connect cities in European: Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Moscow, Paris, Prague and Rome…


At present, travelers from the UK usually fly from London to Bangkok, Singapore or Hong Kong to catch a connection to Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi. It makes inconvenience and wastes of connecting time. A non - stop flight could be such a good way for travelers.


The increase of air travel demand between these two countries is based on tighten economic and trade relations over the past few years. At this time, the United Kingdom is one of the leading trade partners of Vietnam in the European Union, said Mr Pham Ngoc Minh - President and Chief Executive Officer of Vietnam Airlines.


As a statistic, there are nearly 90,000 English tourists coming to Vietnam last year - 2010. It is an increase of 28 percent over 2009.


The direct flight does not only create a chance for the travelers but also benefit the Vietnamese community in the United Kingdom, including more than 7,000 students and 40,000 other currently living and working there.


Four flights per weeks are planed to be launched at first and this number will increase up to seven flights weekly in 2014 with Boeing B777 - 200ER to fly from Noi Bai and Tan Son Nhat airports - Vietnam to Heathrow and Gatwick airports - England.
