Priya Sharma, a traveler from Mumbai, shared her experience, saying, “I used to feel anxious about international flights with elderly family members. On Vietjet, we heard Hindi announcements and enjoyed dishes like curry, naan, and masala tea. It made us feel like we were at home on a foreign flight!”
Many returning passengers have also noticed the presence of Indian pilots and cabin crew, especially on festive occasions such as Diwali and Holi, where celebrations onboard include traditional music, attire, and activities, creating an inviting atmosphere.
Traveling to Vietnam is becoming an increasingly warm experience, as noted by a New Delhi traveler who described feeling genuinely welcomed. The statistics from 2025 highlight this growth, with hundreds of thousands from India flocking to Vietnam. Vietjet now provides the most comprehensive flight options between the two countries, operating 25 routes that connect 11 Indian cities to major destinations in Vietnam with around 80 flights weekly. To date, over 2.5 million passengers have flown Vietjet routes linking these two nations. Such numbers reflect not only a rising demand for travel but also a deepening cultural and personal connection between India and Vietnam.
Rajiv Mehta, an entrepreneur from Bengaluru, emphasized, “I believe Vietjet is not just an airline connecting cities; it’s bridging people and cultures.”
A significant force behind this burgeoning relationship is Vietjet’s Chairwoman, Dr. Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao. Her respect for and affection towards India have resonated well with local partners. Dr. Thao has made extensive trips to Indian cities—including New Delhi, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, and Bodh Gaya—focusing on nurturing economic ties while also engaging in cultural and philanthropic initiatives.
Her profound understanding of Indian customs and society has greatly influenced Vietjet’s offerings, guiding the airline in creating services that align with the wants and needs of Indian travelers.
The partnership between Vietjet and the Indian aviation sector extends beyond just operating flight routes. It reflects a commitment to enhance efficiency, quality of service, and operational excellence. By pooling resources, expertise, and knowledge, Vietjet and its Indian partners strive to ensure that travelers have exceptional experiences, from the moment they check in to their arrival at their destination, while airlines benefit from more efficient ground operations.
At Noi Bai Airport, Vietjet’s ground-handling subsidiary, AirportNEO, plays a vital role by managing services for Air India. They focus on maintaining high standards in passenger assistance, baggage management, and operational coordination, all of which have received positive feedback. Both airlines and passengers note that well-managed ground services significantly elevate the overall travel experience.
Moreover, Vietjet is fostering innovation and community collaboration through initiatives such as “Startup Flight.” This program connects entrepreneurial and technological communities between Vietnam and India, promoting mentorship, idea exchanges, and joint projects to enhance aviation and travel technologies while fortifying business links between the two countries.
For Indian travelers, Vietjet has become a vital facilitator of connectivity, ease, and cultural interaction. Its broad network and innovative initiatives not only make travel between India and Vietnam more accessible but also strengthen socio-economic and cultural ties. The airline serves a pivotal role in making international travel a routine part of life between these neighboring nations.
In conclusion, Vietjet has evolved from a low-cost carrier to a significant enabler of regular travel, reinforcing the cultural and economic fabric connecting India and Vietnam.
