The flag carrier has started operating four services a week to Hanoi – on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays – as well as three per week to Ho Chi Minh City – on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
Flights are now departing from Heathrow at 11am, landing in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City the next day at 5:45 am and 6:50 am respectively.
Operating at Heathrow since 2015, Vietnam Airlines launched a daily non-stop service to Vietnam in June 2016 before it was forced to halt all services due to Covid. The connection was eventually re-established after a two-year hiatus in June 2022.
