Passengers will be able to enjoy four-star quality services when flying between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City on fights run by Jetstar Pacific as of April 16, according to a representative from national flag carrier Vietnam Airlines.

This standard of services is to apply to all customers who purchase Vietnam Airlines tickets and fly on flights operated in partnership with Jetstar Pacific.

Specifically, passengers who purchase Vietnam Airlines-Jetstar Pacific codeshare tickets between the two major cities will be able to enjoy the same four-star ground and air service standards.

Between April 16 and June 30 Jetstar Pacific and Vietnam Airlines will be operating daily return flights between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City in the form of a codeshare partnership. The purpose of this mutually-beneficial relationship is to save on human resources and the costs for both airlines due to the negative impact caused by the novel coronavirus epidemic.

It is anticipated that these flights will comply with the most stringent of epidemic prevention regulations, with crew members taking steps to wear protective gear whilst passengers will be required to fill in health declaration forms, have their body temperature checked before boarding, and wear face masks throughout their journey.
