Vietnam Airlines launches Hanoi-Mumbai air route

This is the carrier’s second route connecting Vietnam and India, after New Delhi capital.

Its Deputy General Director Trinh Ngoc Thanh said that with a new route linking to Mumbai, India's most important financial, commercial and cultural center, the airline wants to show its commitment to continuously expanding and developing a network of routes, giving passengers options.

Vietnam Airlines will operate four flights per week on the Hanoi-Mumbai route on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

To mark the new service, it is offering preferential fares, with a round-trip ticket, including taxes and fees, costing $199.

The prices are applied for tickets purchased until May 26, for flights between May 20 and 26.
