This increase in flights comes at a time when connectivity demand between Vietnam and Northeast Asia remains high. According to data from the General Statistics Office of Vietnam's Ministry of Finance, South Korea was Vietnam's second-largest international tourist source market in the first half of 2026, with over 2.16 million visitors. Japan and Taiwan also maintained their positions as important source markets, with stable growth in two-way passenger traffic.

In response to market changes, Vietnam Airlines will continue to expand its international route network by combining the strategy of "maintaining traditional markets and exploring new destinations." In 2026, Vietnam Airlines has launched new routes to Amsterdam (Netherlands), Phuket (Thailand), and Colombo (Sri Lanka). The airline is prioritizing the expansion of a highly connected route network to continuously meet the increasingly diverse travel needs of passengers, further promoting economic and trade exchanges and tourism cooperation between Vietnam and the international market.
