The airline will run four flights per week on the route, departing every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday with a travel time of approximately five hours.

Kochi is the fourth Indian city that VietJet has launched direct flights to after previously operating a number of routes to some of India’s leading economic, cultural, and political hubs such as Mumbai, New Delhi, and Ahmedabad.

With the new direct flights in use, Indian visitors will be able to easily travel to Ho Chi Minh City, as well as other locations across Vietnam, Australia, the Republic of Korea, Japan, Singapore, and Indonesia.
