Vietnamese carrier Vietjet launched direct flights between Clark International Airport (CRK) and Ho Chi Minh City on November 10, 2026, becoming the first airline to offer nonstop services between the two destinations.
The new route, which operates three times a week, is expected to expand Clark’s international connectivity and provide more travel options for passengers in Central and Northern Luzon, while supporting tourism and business exchanges between the Philippines and Vietnam.
Flights operate every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, connecting Clark with Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam’s leading economic and commercial center.
Passengers can also use the city as a connecting point to other destinations in Vietnam and the Asia-Pacific through Vietjet’s domestic and international network.
“Vietjet’s arrival is an important addition to Clark International Airport’s growing roster of international airline partners. We remain committed to attracting more airlines and expanding our route network to serve the travel needs of Central and Northern Luzon,” Noel Manankil, president and CEO of Luzon International Premiere Airport Development (LIPAD) Corporation, the airport’s operator, said in a news release.
Vietjet CEO Nguyen Thanh Son said the new service would strengthen the airline’s presence in the Philippine market.
