Vietnam Airlines launched adirect Hanoi\u2013Amsterdam flight on June 16.<\/strong>It's the first direct route between Vietnam and the Netherlands, expanding the airline's direct European service to12 routes across 8 cities.<\/strong>It operates three round trips a week (Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday) with a wide-body A350. Amid a surge in international guests from Europe, it's a move aimed at capturing demand.<\/p>\n

The Netherlands' first direct route<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Until now, Hanoi\u2013Amsterdam had assumed a connecting flight. With the launch of the direct flight, the hurdle to travel drops for both business and tourism. Amsterdam is now added to Paris, Frankfurt, London, Munich, Milan, Copenhagen, and Moscow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

In line with rising European demand<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The timing of the launch overlaps with the surge in European guests. Vietnam Airlines has expanded supply, including adding about 1,000 seats on European routes, and the Amsterdam line is part of that. Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport is one of Europe's leading hubs, capturing connecting demand not only within the Netherlands but to destinations across Europe.<\/p>\n

Background: airways carry the guests<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Behind the surge in emerging markets, there's always the presence of \"direct flights.\" As guests from Northern and Eastern Europe such as Poland and Sweden grow, a direct link to the Amsterdam hub is effective for drawing visitors from all of Europe. The thicker the airways become, the more the flow of people and goods changes.<\/p>\n
