In 2019, Australia was Vietnam‘s 12th largest aviation market, with Vietnam Airlines alone transporting over 400,000 passengers out of nearly 900,000 total passengers. Despite the ongoing recovery from global challenges, Australia climbed to the 8th position in 2022 among Vietnam’s largest markets. Currently, Australia ranks 4th among Vietnam Airlines’ most significant markets due to its impressive recovery rate.

During the first four months of 2023, Vietnam received more than 130,000 Australian visitors, making Australia a key market for the tourism industry. The introduction of this new direct flight is expected to attract more Australian visitors to Vietnam in the near future.
