Vietjet has officially launched its latest flight, connecting Hanoi in Vietnam to Tokyo Narita International Airport in Japan.

The latest route follows the launch of the Hanoi to Osaka route and the Ho Chi Minh City to Osaka route, making it the third service to Japan.

The route will operate daily with a flight time of around six hours per leg.

“We are delighted to launch a third direct route from Vietnam to Japan.

“The launch of this new route brings a new travel option for people and travellers from Tokyo, and the Kanto region in general, to Hanoi, the capital city of Vietnam, from where they have easy access to many more of the World’s famous destinations such as Sapa, Ha Long Bay, Trang An and Son Doong cave,” said Vietjet vice president, Do Xuan Quang.

“The two countries’ people and international tourists can also effortlessly transit to other ASEAN countries or destinations across the North Asia region with Vietjet’s comprehensive and constantly expanding flight network.”
