IndiGo, India’s preferred airline, has announced the introduction of daily, direct services between Delhi and Hanoi, effective 20 December 2025. The new route, to be operated by IndiGo’s Airbus A320 aircraft, will offer seamless connectivity from India’s capital to Vietnam’s dynamic cultural and commercial centre.
IndiGo currently operates 14 weekly flights connecting Kolkata with Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. The addition of the Delhi–Hanoi route marks a significant expansion of the airline’s presence in Vietnam, catering to the rising travel demand between the two nations.
Vietnam has rapidly emerged as one of the most sought-after destinations for Indian travellers, owing to its blend of natural beauty, culinary diversity, and heritage experiences. The new connectivity is expected to further strengthen tourism and trade ties between India and Vietnam, aligning with the growing interest of leisure and corporate travellers in the ASEAN region.
Commenting on the development, Vinay Malhotra, Head of Global Sales, IndiGo, said, “Vietnam has emerged as one of the fastest-growing travel and business destinations for Indians, driven by its cultural vibrancy, natural beauty, and economic dynamism. We are pleased to announce daily direct flights between Delhi and Hanoi, in addition to the already popular services from Kolkata to Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, as a convenient avenue for travel to Vietnam. As we continue to enhance connectivity across the ASEAN region, our endeavour remains to provide seamless, affordable, and on-time travel options to our customers.”
The Delhi–Hanoi service is expected to enhance regional connectivity and further position IndiGo as a key player in expanding India’s aviation links across Southeast Asia.
