Da Nang (VNA) – The Da Nang Department of Tourism and Vietjet Air organised a ceremony to launch a new flight service linking the vibrant central city of Da Nang with Ahmedabad, a cultural hub of India, on October 23.
The new route will operate two round trips weekly, using Airbus A320 aircraft with a seating capacity of 180. Flights from Da Nang will depart at 7:10pm, arriving in Ahmedabad city at 11:25pm on Wednesdays and Saturdays. The return flights from Ahmedabad will leave at 12:25am, landing back in Da Nang at 6:55am on Thursdays and Sundays.
Speaking at the launch event, Vice Chairwoman of the Da Nang municipal People’s Committee Nguyen Thi Anh Thi said this route not only meets the growing demand for travel between the two countries but also opens up new opportunities for economic, educational, cultural and technological cooperation.
Da Nang is known for its dynamic economy and international gateway status in central Vietnam. Meanwhile, Ahmedabad, a city rich in cultural heritage and a major economic hub, is poised to attract both tourists and investors, she said.
The department and relevant units have planned a warm welcome for passengers on the inaugural flight from Ahmedabad to Da Nang on October 24 morning. They will be greeted with gifts, check-in photos, and music performances upon their arrival at Da Nang International Airport.
Da Nang's strategic focus on the Indian market began in 2018 with tourism promotion events in Mumbai and New Delhi. The city has since welcomed Famtrip delegations comprising representatives from Indian travel agents, and event and wedding planners who come to connect with local tourism companies.
The city's tourism sector has also participated in the South Asia Travel and Tourism Exchange (SATTE) and hosted Famtrip groups and key opinion leaders (KOLs) from Ahmedabad, offering them a firsthand experience of Da Nang's charm.
Additionally, online tourism promotion efforts have been underway on Instagram specifically targeting the Indian market./.
