Nok Air began operating Bangkok-Yangon flights this year, and will conduct flights between Bangkok and Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City in 2014.

Nok Air financial manager Vital Ratanakorn confirmed that consumer demand makes flights to Vietnam a priority for next year.

The two Thai budget airlines, Thai AirAsia and VietJetAir, are currently operating flights between Thai and Vietnamese cities.

Larger national airlines such as Vietnam Airlines, Thai Airways International, Qatar Airways, and Turkish Airlines, also service the route.

Nok Air is also considering launching Boeing 737-800 flights to Laos, Cambodia and selected Chinese provinces.
