Hong Kong Airlines is planning to launch a three day a week route between Hong Kong and Ho Chi Minh City on March 17 flying Airbus A320s on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

The new route will bring the carrier’s weekly flight total in Vietnam to 10, including its daily flight to Hanoi.

“The new service marks an important milestone in our development in the Vietnamese market, where we opened our first route to Hanoi in 2010,” said Hong Kong Airlines’ commercial director Li Dian Chun in an announcement on February 18.

The flights will depart Hong Kong at 12:20pm, arrive in Ho Chi Minh City at 1:55pm, return to Hong Kong at 3pm with wheels down set for 6:30pm, all local times.
