Vietjet first connected Vietnam with Taiwan on December 12, 2014 by opening the HCMC-Taipei route, which is now operated with two daily return flights a day. Following Taiwan’s Southbound Policy, the airline launched HCMC-Tainan route with five return flights a week in June 2016; Hanoi-Taipei route with a daily return flight in October 2016; HCMC-Kaohsiung route with a daily return flight from December 2016; HCMC-Taichung route with a daily return flight in January 2017 and Hanoi-Kaohsiung route with five return flights a week in October 2017.

The airline has not only brought in more air travel opportunities for millions of people at affordable fares, but also pioneered in taking part in many meaningful social, cultural and recreational activities in Taiwan such as the Asia-Pacific Culture Festival in Taipei, the Taiwan International Hot Air Balloon Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Kaohsiung International Travel Fair, etc.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Thuy Binh, Vietjet Vice President, said, “Taiwan has become a well-known tourist destination for the people of Vietnam in particular and the Southeast Asia in general thanks to its bustling cities, majestic natural scenery, rich culture and nice cuisine. Since its first commercial flight connecting HCMC with Taipei, Vietjet has carried more than one million passengers between Vietnam and Taiwan. Today, we are proudly the very first Vietnamese airline to operate the most services to Taiwan with 52 flights per week. Through our expanding network, we will offer the people, tourists, and businessmen from the two localities more and better services in the coming time.”
