Fly Direct with MakeMyTrip: Exclusive Holiday Packages to Phu Quoc, Vietnam

Gurugram, 10 October 2025:  MakeMyTrip, India’s leading online travel company, today announced the launch of curated holiday packages to Phu Quoc, Vietnam, with exclusive direct flights, operated by Air India Express, starting December 9, 2025. MakeMyTrip has scheduled multiple exclusive direct flights for the upcoming winter season, with departures every five days. As Phu Quoc currently has no direct connectivity from India, the direct service will cut travel time from around eight hours via connecting routes to just five hours, making the island far more accessible for Indian holidaymakers.

Speaking about the development, Jasmeet Singh, Chief Commercial Officer – Holidays & Experiences, MakeMyTrip, said, “Indian travellers today are looking for destinations that offer unique experiences, easy access, and great value. Phu Quoc fits the bill and has become a focus destination as part of our Vietnam packages. However, it has remained relatively underexplored due to the lack of direct connectivity. We are making this scenic island destination far more accessible for Indians planning their international holidays this winter. Our packages also include Indian vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals, along with curated local Vietnamese cuisine, because we understand how important familiar food options are for Indian consumers while travelling abroad offering them a perfect balance of comfort and discovery.”

Commenting on this collaboration, Manish Puri, Head of Global Sales, Air India and Air India Express, said, “We are pleased to collaborate with MakeMyTrip in enabling direct connectivity between Delhi and Phu Quoc. This initiative reflects our commitment to making travel more accessible and opening new avenues for exploration across emerging leisure destinations. Air India Express continues to create meaningful connections that inspire travellers to keep exploring more.”

Phu Quoc, also known as Pearl Island, is Vietnam's largest island and offers a diverse range of experiences. The island is home to a sea-crossing cable car, spanning nearly 8 kilometers, connecting Phu Quoc to Hon Thom Island. Families can explore VinWonders theme park, wildlife safari, and the island's famous pearl farms. Couples and young travelers can experience Sunset Town, the Kiss of the Sea show, pristine beaches, and vibrant nightlife. With year-round tropical weather, Phu Quoc is well-suited for travel across seasons.

MakeMyTrip has designed packages to suit varied traveller preferences and budgets, ranging from premium getaways at upscale beachfront resorts with curated private experiences to family-friendly options that include airport transfers, sightseeing tours, and activities for all age groups. Packages for Phu Quoc start at ₹49,999 per person for a 4-night/5-day holiday, inclusive of flights, accommodation, and select experiences. Please click here to know more.
