Jet Airways Chief Commercial Officer Raj Sivakumar told newsmen after the opening ceremony that this is part of its global expansion plan in Southeast Asian region.
Besides Ho Chi Minh City, the airline will expand their codeshare flights to Hanoi, other ASEAN cities, and Sydney and Melbourne of Australia.
He added that the launch of direct flights will contribute to promoting cooperations between Vietnam and India in various fields, especially in tourism.
Currently, there are a number of Indian travel agents operating in Vietnam, thus the ability to exploit cooperation potential in this field is very large, said Sivakumar.
