Airfares to tourist destinations are all starting to decline. There are stages in which ticket prices have been reduced by 50% compared to the beginning of July.
Domestic airfares were very expensive in early July with an average price of 3-6 million VND each way, even the Hanoi – Con Dao route sometimes went up to 10 million VND. High rates are mainly due to high summer demand and the impact of fuel prices. Recently, as gas prices have fallen, airline tickets have also started to cool.
Passengers flying from Ho Chi Minh City – Hanoi can choose Vietjet Air tickets with the cheapest price of 2.7 million VND with many different flight hours.
Vietravel Airlines and Bamboo Airways flights cost VND 3-3.5 million. Likewise, Vietnam Airlines also has many flights for the price of 3.2-3.7 million dong round trip.
Compared to the beginning of July, this price was about 700,000 VND cheaper.
The cheapest flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Phu Quoc is VND 1.7 million from Vietjet Air. This airline also has other flights with the price of 2-2.2 million dong. Bamboo Airways and Vietnam Airlines have prices from 2.2 to 2.7 million VND. This price is about 300-500,000 VND lower than the peak in early July.
The flight route from Ho Chi Minh City to Da Nang costs VND 2.1 million when flying with Vietjet.
Vietnam Airlines and Bamboo Airways flights cost VND 2.5-2.9 million.
From Ho Chi Minh City to Hue, customers have to pay VND 2.1 million for a return flight from Vietjet Air. If you fly with Bamboo Airways and Vietnam Airlines, the fare ranges from 2.6 to 2.8 million VND.
This price has “cooled down” significantly compared to the beginning of July. At the time, the Ho Chi Minh City – Hue route cost VND 4.4-4.8 million for all airlines. That means ticket prices have fallen by as much as 50%.
The cheapest flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Dong Hoi is VND 2.5 million from Vietjet Air. Other flights from Vietnam Airlines and Bamboo Airways are quite expensive, from 3.3 to 4.8 million VND/round.
Flights from Ho Chi Minh City to Vinh cost 2.9 to 3.1 million VND when flying with Vietjet Air. If you fly with Vietnam Airlines and Bamboo, guests will have to pay about 5 million for a round trip.
As of July 21 at 3:00 PM, the domestic price of E5 RON 92 gasoline decreased by VND 2,710/litre and the RON 95 gasoline price decreased by VND 3,600/litre. This is the 3rd drop of this item after 7 consecutive increases. This may have had consequences for airline tickets.
Some flight segments that do not fly to tourist destinations are still at a high level due to the “side deviation” factor. That is, there is a very high demand for passenger flights in one direction and a very low demand for the opposite direction. Therefore, airfares may be higher than usual to ensure cost efficiency, compensate for “empty” or insufficient passengers.
