The announcement follows a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) inked between the airline and Munich Airport earlier this week.
The two direct routes will operate from July with one round-trip flight per week from Hanoi and two from HCM City.
The airline said it will use Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners - the most modern, fuel-efficient wide-body aircraft as of now, with numerous outstanding utilities and services, for these routes.
Munich Airport is the main gateway to the city of Munich - Germany's third-largest city after Berlin and Hamburg, and is one of the most important economic, transportation and cultural centres in the country.
