OAG Aviation, a global flight data provider, recently released its list of the 10 busiest domestic flight routes in Southeast Asia for August. Vietnam stands out with three routes making the top 10: Hanoi-Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi-Da Nang, and Da Nang-Ho Chi Minh City. Leading the list is the Hanoi-Ho Chi Minh City route, with nearly 950,000 seats offered. The Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam reports that during this year’s National Day holiday, tourist and North-South routes saw the highest demand, averaging 33,000 seats per day.
In 2023, the Vietnamese domestic aviation market has almost fully recovered to pre-COVID-19 levels, recording robust passenger numbers. The international market, while recovering more slowly, is also showing positive growth trends.
Back in 2019, the Hanoi-Ho Chi Minh City route was ranked among the top 6 busiest domestic routes globally. This year’s recovery indicates Vietnam’s strong return to the aviation industry after the challenges posed by the pandemic.
The Top 10 busiest domestic routes globally include notable routes like Jeju to Seoul, Tokyo to Sapporo, and Melbourne to Sydney, alongside Vietnam’s major domestic routes.
