The Ahmedabad-Hanoi direct flight has started operations from Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport, creating a new nonstop air link between Gujarat and Vietnam. Vietnam Airlines will operate the service four days a week on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays, according to a report by Divya Bhaskar.
The first flight was reported on 3 November 2026. The route is expected to make travel between Gujarat and Vietnam more convenient by removing the need for passengers to take connecting flights for journeys to Hanoi.
The new service will also allow passengers from Gujarat to use Hanoi as a connecting point for onward travel to other destinations, although the supplied report does not specify the onward destinations, aircraft type, flight timings or seat capacity.
The launch marks Vietnam Airlines’ fifth operational hub in India, the report said. The airline will provide direct connectivity in both directions between Ahmedabad and Hanoi as part of the new schedule.
For Ahmedabad’s airport, the route adds another international connection to its network and expands direct access to Southeast Asia. The service may be relevant to leisure travellers, business passengers and people travelling between Gujarat and Vietnam, while the available report does not provide passenger-demand forecasts or details of any tourism or trade agreements linked to the launch.
The route is scheduled to operate on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Further operational details, including departure and arrival timings, were not included in the supplied report.
