The former will have two flights a day and the latter will operate one flight daily.

The carrier will also increase its flight between Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi to 8 flights per day, starting on April 27.

VietJetAir, the first Vietnamese private carrier licensed to operate both domestic and international routes, officially entered Vietnam’s aviation market in late 2011 with one service between Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi.

As of 27 February, 2012, the carrier has made 360 flights, carrying more than 40,000 passengers and achieving an occupancy rate of more than 90 per cent.

The low-cost carrier plans to launch more domestic and international flights to Asian countries in 2012.
