Thai Vietjet is all set to launch a new international service between Chiang Mai, Thailand’s second-largest city, and Japan’s Osaka from January 31, 2023.
The new flight will link Chiang Mai International Airport to Kansai International Airport in Osaka. Until 15 December 2022, the airline is offering a special inaugural fare on flight bookings.
Woranate Laprabang, chief executive officer, Thai Vietjet, said: “We are delighted to further connect Chiang Mai, Thailand, with a very popular city in Japan ‘Osaka’ providing Thai people with a valued choice of direct services to travel to Japan after we have launched a service between Bangkok (Suvarnabhumi) and Fukuoka last July.”
The airline will fly three times weekly on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday on the Chiang Mai – Osaka route with five hours of flight time.
Osaka is the second largest city after Tokyo, located in the Kansai region of Honshu, Japan.
