Vietjet Floods Market with 130,000 Extra Seats, & 20% Off Business Class!

If you haven’t booked your April or May getaway yet, don't panic—help has arrived from the skies.

Vietjet has officially announced a massive capacity boost for the upcoming peak travel season, adding 130,000 extra seats to its network. This 18% increase in flights comes just in time for Vietnam’s major holiday double-whammy: Hung Kings’ Commemoration and the Reunification Day long weekend (25 April to 5 May).

Looking to escape the "Little Red Dot" for a quick Pho fix or a beach retreat? Here is why this is actually great news for your wallet.

1. Beat the "Sold Out" Blues

We’ve all been there: checking flights for a long weekend only to find "Sold Out" or prices that rival a trip to London. By adding nearly 500 extra flights, Vietjet is effectively cooling down the price surge.

Whether you’re eyeing the bustling streets of Ho Chi Minh City, the historic charm of Hanoi, or the pristine beaches of Phu Quoc, your chances of snagging a seat just shot up.

2. The "Flash Sale" You Can’t Ignore

To celebrate the expansion, Vietjet is dropping a "blink-and-you ’ll-miss-it" promo. From now until 10 April 2026, you can score 20% off Deluxe, SkyBoss, and Business fares using the code SALE20.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to finally try their Business Class or SkyBoss service (think: priority check-in and lounge access), this is the time to do it for a fraction of the usual cost. The travel period runs through 31 August 2026, so you can even book your June school holiday trips now.

3. New Destination Alert: Hello, Nha Trang!

While the extra seats cover current favourites like Da Nang and Hue, the real buzz is the upcoming Singapore–Nha Trang direct route launching on 1 June 2026. This makes Vietnam’s seafood capital and diving mecca more accessible than ever for a weekend "coastal getaway."

TripZilla Booking Tips for the Peak:

• Book by 10 April: That 20% discount code (SALE20) expires in just 48 hours.

• Check-in Online: With 832,000 people expected to be flying the Vietjet network during this window, the airport will be buzzing. Save yourself the queue.

• Direct from SG: Remember, Vietjet flies direct from Changi to HCMC, Hanoi, Da Nang, and Phu Quoc. No annoying layovers required.

If you’ve been sitting on the fence about a Vietnam trip, consider this your green light!
