Sun PhuQuoc Airways has announced the launch of direct flights between Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India, and Phu Quoc, Vietnam’s largest island. The service, set to begin operations, will operate using a new Airbus A321neo aircraft, capable of carrying approximately 230 passengers. This route marks the airline’s first direct connection to India, enhancing travel options for tourists and business travelers.
The flights will provide a faster and more convenient travel option compared to previous indirect routes. Ahmedabad, a major city in western India, is known for its cultural heritage and growing tourism sector, while Phu Quoc is a popular destination for its beaches and resorts. The new service is expected to increase passenger numbers and support economic ties between the two regions.
This development follows growing interest in air travel between India and Southeast Asia. In recent years, there has been a noticeable increase in cross-border tourism and trade, prompting airlines to expand their networks. Sun PhuQuoc Airways has been actively working to improve connectivity in the region, and this new route is part of a broader strategy to enhance its presence in the Indian subcontinent. The airline plans to offer regular flights, with schedules to be announced soon.
