Vietjet celebrated India’s Festival of Lights by bringing Diwali festivities onboard its flights between Bengaluru and Ho Chi Minh City, creating a festive experience for passengers travelling between the two destinations. The special initiative brought Indian traditions and festive cheer to the skies, allowing travellers to experience the spirit of Diwali during their journey.
As part of the celebrations on November 6, passengers were welcomed with traditional Indian sweets symbolising joy, happiness and prosperity. Vietjet’s cabin crew, dressed in traditional Indian attire, distributed festive souvenirs and extended wishes for peace and good fortune. Passengers were also invited to write Diwali greeting cards for their loved ones, friends or themselves, adding a personal touch to the celebrations.
The airline extended the festivities beyond its special flights through Diwali-themed activities at its Indian airport stations from November 5 to 9. These included dedicated photo spots and festive standees, allowing passengers to capture moments before departure. Gift stations at check-in counters offered greeting cards, festive stickers and e-vouchers, bringing the celebrations to travellers even before they boarded their flights.
Vietjet’s India–Vietnam network currently connects Mumbai, New Delhi, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad and Bengaluru with Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. The network provides Indian travellers with direct connections to Vietnam, supporting leisure and business travel as well as cultural exchanges between the two countries.
Through the initiative, Vietjet aims to make air travel an opportunity for cultural discovery and meaningful experiences beyond connecting destinations. By taking Diwali celebrations onboard and to airport locations across India, the airline sought to bring festive traditions closer to passengers travelling between India and Vietnam.
