#TravelPH - Your 2026 Travel Era Starts Now: AirAsia Just Made Vietnam Closer (and Cheaper!) Than Ever
AirAsia Philippines just dropped a travel gift that’s hard to ignore: flights to Vietnam starting at only ₱888. Yes, it’s real. Yes, it’s happening. And yes, it might be the sign you’ve been waiting for.
Beginning March 20, 2026, AirAsia is officially opening two long‑awaited routes: Manila–Hanoi and Manila–Da Nang. Whether you’ve been dreaming of sipping Vietnamese coffee streetside, wandering through lantern‑lit markets, or exploring ancient temples and coastal views, this expansion feels like a doorway to all of it.
And the timing couldn’t be better. The introductory fares—₱888 one‑way base fare—are available until February 1, 2026, with a travel window stretching from March 20 to October 25, 2026. That’s months of possibilities to plan a solo escape, a barkada getaway, or a much‑needed reset with your favorite travel buddy.
What makes this launch even more exciting is how it fits into the bigger picture for AirAsia Philippines. With its Cebu hub now up and running and new international routes rolling out, the airline is clearly betting big on making Southeast Asian travel easier and more affordable for Filipinos. And according to CEO Capt. Suresh Bangah, this expansion isn’t just about letting Pinoys explore more—it’s also about bringing tourists into the Philippines and giving the local economy a well‑deserved boost.
If you’re the kind of traveler who values convenience as much as savings, the schedule might make you smile too. Both Vietnam routes—Hanoi and Da Nang—will operate four times a week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Sunday) with afternoon-to-evening departures. Translation: no need for those dreaded before-sunrise airport trips.
The best part? Vietnam is one of those destinations that feels wonderfully rich without requiring a huge budget. Think hearty meals for under ₱150, scenic stops that don’t cost a thing, and cultural hotspots that are as welcoming as they are fascinating.
So whether your 2026 travel mood board is leaning toward bustling city vibes, postcard beaches, or a quiet retreat with lots of pho and banh mi breaks, this new AirAsia rollout might be the easiest way to make it happen.
Time to dust off the suitcase—you might be headed to Vietnam sooner than you think.
