VietNamNet Bridge – As of January 1, 2015, budget airline VietJet Air will change check-in times for both domestic and international flights, under the Ministry of Transport’s new rules.
The Ministry of Transport’s Circular (36/2014/TT-BGTVT), which took effect on December 1 and is applied to all flights departing from Vietnamese airports, requires check-in counters to open two hours before the departure time of domestic flights and three hours prior to international flights.
The check-in counters will close 40 minutes (compared to 30 minutes earlier) before the departure of domestic flights and 50 minutes (compared to 45 minutes earlier) before international flights. Boarding gates will close 15 minutes before departure.
To help passengers get used to the new regulations, Vietjet will still allow passengers to complete check-in procedures 30 minutes before departure for domestic flights and 45 minutes before departure for international flights from December 1 to December 31.
From January 1, 2015, all Vietjet check-in counters will close 40 minutes prior to departure of domestic flights and 50 minutes to departure of international flights as requested by the Ministry of Transport.
Vietjet strongly encourages passengers to finish every flight procedure at the airport on time as requested. For further details, customers can visit www.vietjetair.com (click on the tab “Flight Information” and sub-tab “Terms and Conditions”) or dial 1900 1886 to reach the Customer Care Center.
VietJet – the first privately owned airline in Vietnam – is applying the operation model of a new age airline. With the fleet of 18 Airbus A320 aircraft, Vietjet operates 150 flights per day, transporting eight million passengers in total so far. The airline covers 28 local and international routes across the country and the region to Singapore, Thailand, South Korea, Taiwan, and Cambodia.
In accordance with its business development plan, Vietjet will take delivery of six to 12 Airbus aircraft every year. The airline is considering orders from world-leading aircraft manufacturers’ new wide-body aircraft in order to launch international routes to Europe and expand the flight network across the Asia Pacific region.
