en.Wedoany.com Reported - Vietnam's national carrier, Vietnam Airlines, will receive and put into operation two Airbus aircraft from June 26 to mid-July, adding nearly 23,000 seats per month to the domestic market.

On June 26, Vietnam Airlines will take delivery of its first Airbus A320, introduced under a three-year lease contract, followed by an additional Airbus A321 in July to meet the peak summer travel demand. The new aircraft will be deployed on routes between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, as well as connecting these two cities with destinations such as Hue, Da Nang, Quy Nhon, and Nha Trang.

Vietnam Airlines Group, comprising Vietnam Airlines, Pacific Airlines, and Vietnam Air Services Company (VASCO), previously announced that from now until August 16, it will operate 28,300 domestic flights, offering nearly 5.5 million seats, with flight numbers and seat capacity increasing by 5% and 3% year-on-year, respectively. Vietnam Airlines has also increased early morning and late-night flights, with approximately 40% of seats sold at competitive prices.

On the international front, Vietnam Airlines launched the Hanoi-Amsterdam (Netherlands) route on June 16, and from July 1, it will increase the frequency of the Hanoi-Moscow (Russia) route to four flights per week. Starting July 2, the Ho Chi Minh City-Phuket (Thailand) route will be launched with a frequency of four flights per week. The Ho Chi Minh City-Colombo (Sri Lanka) route is expected to commence on August 16 with a frequency of three flights per week.

Amid the ongoing global shortage of passenger aircraft, the continuous delivery of new aircraft will help Vietnam Airlines boost its operational capacity during the surge in summer travel demand, enabling the company to quickly recover its business operations after being affected by the Middle East situation.
