On the afternoon of July 15, the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Tourism held a press meeting about the plan to encourage tourists to choose night flights. The plan's goal is to meet the increasing travel demand during the peak summer season of 2024.
Accordingly, airlines have strived to optimize their aircrafts, service personnel, and increase night flights, contributing to lowering airfares. Despite these efforts, night flights have not really attracted passengers, and many flights were canceled. The plan to encourage tourists to choose night flights requires cooperation from relevant parties.
For example, Ho Chi Minh City Department of Tourism has coordinated with Vietnam Airlines Corporation, travel agencies, and tourist accommodation establishments to develop a set of night flight products for the peak summer tourist season.
Vietnam Airlines asked for registration from tourist accommodation establishments to compile a reasonable and attractive package for tourists. The package combined airfares from 9pm to 6am the next morning every day by offering free or discounted accommodation up to 80% for the first night. The offers apply to guests staying at least 3 nights.
There are 16 tourist accommodation establishments in the city that have registered for the program. Their packages offer discounts of 20% to 100% of the room rate for the first night according to the listed price. From the second night, the discount will be a 60% discount according to the listed price (depending on the accommodation, the policy and conditions of application might vary).
