The airline is now operating two additional morning services on Sundays and Mondays, increasing the total number of flights it operates the capital city to 13 per week.

“In July, Jetstar Asia’s load factor averaged over 90 per cent meaning we are welcoming more passengers on board our flights and are making the world more accessible for our customers again,” said Woo Wai Keong, Jetstar Asia’s Regional Sales Manager for SEA. “By restoring and growing our short-haul network, we’re helping reconnect families and friends, giving our customers more opportunities to take a well-deserved break, while helping rebuild economies of the communities we fly to.”

Effective 19 August, the airline will reschedule two services between Singapore and Ho Chi Minh (Saigon), to depart on Friday and Sunday evenings instead of Wednesday and Sunday mornings, allowing customers to make more of their stay.

The service also helps customers connect from Qantas, Emirates, Srilankan Air, Finnair and KLM flights.

The turnaround return flight from Saigon will depart at 22:00 and arrive in Singapore at 01:00.

Jetstar Asia currently operates more than 200 flights per week from Changi Airport Terminal 1 to 12 key destinations across Southeast Asia.
