South Korea’s Air Busan to resume Busan–Hanoi flights from December 31
The Republic of Korea (RoK)’s carrier Air Busan will resume flights on the Busan–Hanoi route from December 31, 2025, after a six-year hiatus, the Vietnam News Agency reported.
The airline will operate non-regular flights four times per week—on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays—through March 1, 2026.
Such flights will depart Gimhae International Airport at 8:30 pm (local time) and arrive at Hanoi’s Noi Bai International Airport at 11:30 pm (local time). The return flight will leave Hanoi at 0:40 am and land in Gimhae at 7:05 am, with a total flight duration of approximately five hours.
The carrier first launched regular services between Busan and Hanoi in October 2018 but suspended operations in February 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The resumption is expected to bolster Air Busan’s connectivity with its existing Vietnam routes, such as Da Nang and Nha Trang.
