Just days before its inaugural Colombo–Ho Chi Minh City flight, Vietjet’s much-awaited Double Day Sale is back. The 8.8 promotion is offering Eco tickets from USD90 one way (inclusive of taxes and fees) on the route, discounts of up to 30% on premium fares, and 50% off pre-ordered meal combos, giving Sri Lankan travellers an ideal opportunity to plan their trips to Vietnam. The promotion also coincides with Vietjet being named Best Hybrid Airline for the first time in South Korea, one of the airline’s key international markets.

From now to 21:30 on 8 August 2026 (Sri Lanka time), passengers from Sri Lanka can enjoy promotional Eco fares across Vietjet’s flight network, including the upcoming Colombo–Ho Chi Minh City service. Bookings can be made via www.vietjetair.com, the “Vietjet Air” mobile app, and other sales channels. The offer is available for travel between 5 September 2026 and 31 March 2027 (excluding public holidays and peak travel periods, subject to market conditions).

Passengers can also save up to 30% on Business and SkyBoss fares on all Vietjet’s direct international flights using the promo code BUSB88. A separate 20% discount on Deluxe fares, using the promo code DLX88, applies to flights between Hanoi, Almaty, and Prague only.

To make every journey even more enjoyable, passengers who pre-order meal combos will receive an instant 50% discount. This offer is available on all Vietjet routes (excluding connecting itineraries) for travel between 18 August 2026 and 31 March 2027. Travellers from Sri Lanka will be able to enjoy the promotion from the launch of Vietjet’s Colombo–Ho Chi Minh City service on 18 August 2026.

The campaign follows another milestone for the airline, which has been named Best Hybrid Airline for the first time at the Korea Consumer Awards 2026, alongside the Best Inflight Food Experience and Service Excellence awards. The recognition reflects Vietjet’s successful transformation into a hybrid airline, combining affordable fares with enhanced products and services across its Eco, Deluxe, SkyBoss and Business fare options.

The Korea Consumer Awards recognise brands trusted by consumers in South Korea based on nationwide consumer surveys and evaluations by a panel of expert judges. Vietjet is the only foreign airline to receive awards at the event for the second consecutive year and was also named among South Korea’s 39 Most Trusted Consumer Brands in 2026.

Building on this transformation, Vietjet continues to invest in network expansion to offer travellers greater choice and connectivity. In addition to its debut service in Sri Lanka, the airline will launch new routes from Hanoi to Prague (Czech Republic) and Almaty (Kazakhstan) later this year, further strengthening its international network. Via Ho Chi Minh City, travellers from Colombo will enjoy convenient onward connections to destinations across Vietnam, Asia-Pacific, and beyond.

Passengers flying with Vietjet enjoy a modern, fuel-efficient fleet, flexible fare choices, professional and attentive service, and a diverse selection of freshly prepared hot meals featuring Vietnamese and international favourites, including pho and banh mi, alongside iconic Vietnamese iced milk coffee. Selected special flights also feature unique onboard cultural performances, creating memorable travel experiences beyond transportation.
