The carrier will soon increase two flights per week on Monday and Friday to meet customer demand from October.

On its debut flight, a return ticket from Nha Trang City to Moscow will cost VND10.5 million (US$503.5), excluding VAT and additional charges, from April 1 to March 31--except for two holidays, April 30 and May 1.

This is the third direct flight between Vietnam and Russia that Vietnam Airlines has opened.

Nguyen Tien Nam, a representative of Vietnam Airlines in Russia, said the new route aims to maintain large numbers of Russian visitors to Vietnam in the face of global economic slowdown. In 2012, the number of passengers on the Moscow-Hanoi-HCMC flights rose by 10,000, to reach 79,000 visitors.
