Vietnamese airline firm ‘VietJet Air’ likely to start direct flights to Vietnam with Bangladesh through the launch of flights on the Hanoi-Dhaka-Hanoi route in December this year.
Before, the operation will start with chartered flights, but there is a plan to start regular flights in phases based on passenger demand, said Tasnim Amin Shovon, director and CEO of Inoglobe Travel and Tours Limited, the Bangladeshi partner of Victoria Tour, at an event in Dhaka on Monday, 24 Monday.
Apart from this, Vietnam’s tour operator firm Victoria Tour has also revealed various travel packages including visa processing at an affordable cost for Bangladeshi tourists.
“It takes a lot of time and money to travel from Bangladesh to Vietnam as the flights go via a third country. If direct flights are launched, it will be economical in all aspects,” he added.
He also said that there is a great chance for both nations to work together for the development of the tourism and aviation industry. If the direct flight starts, it will serve as a bridge between the people of both countries as well as expand the trade between Bangladesh and Vietnam.
Victoria Tour Managing Director Nong Van Chien Victor was the special guest at the event. Among others, leading tourism entrepreneurs and professionals of the country were present at the event.
