Rizky Handayani, deputy minister of tourism, Republic of Indonesia described the new route as a good start for Vietjet to connect more destinations in Vietnam to others in Indonesia and the region.
The new route will further improve the relationship and help to increase the travel flow between the two countries, he said, adding that travellers can now enjoy low airfares, less travel time and comfortable trips.
The route will operate five return flights per week, with flight times around four hours per leg.
