VietJet Air remains one of the most popular low-cost carriers in Southeast Asia. Every year, it launches major sales on domestic flights in Thailand and Vietnam, as well as international routes between the two countries. In 2025, a new wave of promotions is expected — and knowing how to prepare means saving up to 90% on your airfare.
When to expect promotions
VietJet Air traditionally holds big sales during key periods:
- September: around the airline’s founding day (September 10);
- November–December: ahead of New Year holidays;
- Spring months: before the peak tourist season.
Promotions usually last 1–3 days, with tickets sold from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM local time. In past years, millions of tickets were offered, including symbolic $0 fares (airport fees and taxes apply).
Top routes to watch in 2025
High demand is expected on routes between:
- Bangkok (Suvarnabhumi / Don Mueang) ↔ Hanoi / Da Nang / Ho Chi Minh City;
- Phuket / Chiang Mai ↔ Da Nang / Nha Trang — popular tourist pairs;
- domestic routes in Thailand and Vietnam (e.g., Bangkok–Pattaya, Ho Chi Minh–Hue).
Where to find deals
The main source is the official VietJet Air website. During sales, a countdown banner with terms appears on the homepage. Also follow updates on:
- official VietJet Air Facebook page;
- the VietJet mobile app (iOS and Android);
- email newsletter — subscribe on the website.
Note: the site may slow down during peak traffic. It’s best to log in 10–15 minutes early and keep the tab open.
Tips to secure the best deal
- Prepare your details: passport, contact info, payment method.
- Choose flexible dates: promotions often cover travel from September 15 to December 31 (excluding public holidays).
- Review fare inclusions: $0 fare covers only the seat. Airport fees, taxes, and baggage are extra.
- Be ready to act fast: the best dates and routes sell out in minutes.
Conclusion
VietJet Air’s regular promotions are a great way to travel affordably across Thailand and Vietnam. While the famous $0 fare sale of 2016 is in the past, its legacy lives on — the airline continues to offer massive discounts.
