Vietjet is rolling out a limited-time, exclusive promotion on its new Colombo–Ho Chi Minh City route, featuring Eco fares from USD90 one-way (inclusive of all taxes and fees) along with 20kg of complimentary checked baggage. The route, Vietjet’s first scheduled service connecting Sri Lanka and Vietnam, is set to commence operation on 18 August 2026.
The promotion begins at 22:30 on 20 July and runs until 21:30 on 23 July 2026 (Sri Lanka time), with fares bookable via www.vietjetair.com or the “Vietjet Air” mobile app. Passengers who select a 20kg checked baggage option during booking will receive it free of charge, regardless of ticket class. The promotion is valid for travel between 18 August 2026 and 31 March 2027 (blackout dates apply).
Operating three times a week on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, the new service departs Bandaranaike International Airport in Colombo at 23:00 and arrives at Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Ho Chi Minh City at 05:55 the following day. Return flights depart Ho Chi Minh City at 18:15 and arrive in Colombo at 21:50 (all times are local time).
The new route gives Sri Lankan travellers direct access to Ho Chi Minh City’s vibrant food scene, historic sights and modern skyline, along with seamless onward connections across Vietnam and the wider Asia-Pacific region through Vietjet’s extensive flight network. From Ho Chi Minh City, passengers can conveniently connect to numerous destinations across Australia, Japan, South Korea, China, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and beyond.
The route also opens Sri Lanka’s beaches, tea country and wildlife to a growing base of Vietnamese and regional travellers, supporting two-way tourism growth between the two countries.
Passengers flying with Vietjet can enjoy a modern fleet, professional onboard service and a selection of hot meals, including Vietnamese specialities such as pho and banh mi, alongside Vietnamese iced milk coffee. Members of the Vietjet SkyJoy loyalty programme can also earn and redeem reward points across Vietjet services and more than 250 partner brands spanning travel, dining, shopping and lifestyle.
