Vietjet has announced its latest nonstop service between Ho Chi Minh City and Sydney, operating via Western Sydney International Airport (WSI). Launching from January 9, 2027, the route will make Vietjet one of the first airlines to provide international connectivity to Australia’s newest international gateway, offering more affordable options for Indian travellers to fly to Australia through Vietnam.
Operating two round-trip flights per week, the new route will connect Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam’s leading economic hub, directly with Western Sydney, one of Australia’s emerging growth centres, enhancing air links across Asia-Pacific. Indian travellers can connect onwards to WSI via direct flights from Delhi, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, and Bengaluru to Ho Chi Minh City
To celebrate the launch, Vietjet is offering a 20% discount on base fares (excluding taxes and fees) for Deluxe, SkyBoss and Business classes across all direct Vietnam-Australia routes. The offer is valid from now until 9.30pm IST on August 16, 2026, using promo code VJAUS20, for travel between September 7, 2026 and March 31, 2027 (exclude peak travel periods and public holidays; blackout dates may apply)
The announcement was made alongside the exchange of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Vietjet and WSI at the Vietnam-Australia Tech Connect Forum in Sydney, during the state visit of Vietnam’s General Secretary and President To Lam to Australia.
Australia is one of Vietjet’s strategic international markets. With its network connecting Vietnam to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth, and now WSI, the airline continues to expand its presence in Australia, providing travellers, communities and businesses with greater choice, convenient connectivity and affordable fares.
