Book early and get ready for your Lunar New Year flight with Vietnam Airlines!
The 2023 Lunar New Year holiday is expected to last for a continuous 9 days, starting from Saturday (21/01/2023) through to Sunday (29/01/2023), which translates from the 30th day of the 12th month of the Year of the Tiger to the 8th day of the 1st month of the Year of the Cat.
Given the extended holiday, many people are sure to plan booking flights to return home and celebrate the Lunar New Year with their family and friends. To meet the travel demand for the 2023 Lunar New Year (Year of the Cat), VNA Group (which includes Vietnam Airlines, Pacific Airlines, and VASCO) will provide millions of seats across its domestic and international networks from 06/01/2023 to 05/02/2023 (from the 15th of the 12th month of the Year of the Tiger to the 15th of the 1st month of the Year of the Cat). Tickets have been available since 15/08/2022 through Vietnam Airlines' website, mobile app, ticket offices, and authorized agents.
Vietnam Airlines will ensure that certain routes receive additional seating to accommodate the high demand during the holiday. Some of these routes include flights to Hanoi, Hai Phong, Thanh Hoa, Hue, Da Nang, Vinh, and more.
In addition to the early sale of Tết tickets, Vietnam Airlines has also issued several recommendations for customers on when it is most suitable to book Tết 2023 flight tickets. Specifically, the guidance is as follows:
Make sure to plan ahead and book your tickets early to get the best prices for your Tết flights
The peak travel period for Tết 2023 will be from the 25th of the Lunar New Year (January 16, 2023, according to the Gregorian calendar) to the 29th of the Lunar New Year (January 20, 2023). Therefore, if you want to secure a good ticket price, it's recommended to fly a few days to a week before the peak period. Additionally, flights to the North and Central regions are expected to be extremely busy right before Tết, as travelers are already starting to hunt for tickets to Vinh, Hanoi, and Da Nang.
Starting from the 3rd day of Tết Quý Mão, flights heading to the South will become the general trend. The majority of travelers will be heading to Ho Chi Minh City to resume work and studies, while others will take advantage of the last days of Tết vacation to book flights to Da Lat, Phu Quoc, or Nha Trang and fully enjoy the beginning of the new year. You can base your travel plans on this information and adjust your flight dates to avoid the peak days, when ticket prices will be considerably high.
In parallel, to prepare for the approaching Tết peak season, Vietnam Airlines typically starts selling Tết flight tickets at least 3 to 4 months in advance, giving passengers enough time to plan, prepare for the trip, and purchase tickets. As a general trend, the busiest time for Tết ticket purchasing is about 2 months before the holiday. Therefore, to easily find suitable itineraries and grab affordable Tết 2023 tickets, it’s best to book as early as possible (during August, September, or October 2022) and avoid waiting until the last minute, as you may face exorbitant prices or struggle to find flights that fit your schedule.
To quickly secure the best-priced Tết 2023 flight tickets and avoid purchasing counterfeit tickets, be proactive and reach out to Mytour.vn through their hotline 1900 2083 for advice and assistance with any questions related to Tết ticket prices or your flight itinerary.
