Vietjet has rolled out a July sale that should make Australian travellers sit up, reach for their passports, and check their annual leave balance twice.
For three days only, the airline is offering hundreds of thousands of cut-price seats across its network. Eco fares between Australia and Vietnam start from $199, including taxes and fees, with bookings open until 9 July. Travel applies from 15 August 2026 to 31 March 2027, subject to route timing, seat supply and the usual peak-period exclusions.
That is a short booking window, so this is not one for the “I’ll look at it after dinner” brigade. In an airline sales country, after-dinner can be very expensive.
The offer gives Australian travellers several ways to save. For international flights, passengers booking Deluxe, SkyBoss or Business can use the code SALE77 for 20 per cent off the ticket price, excluding taxes and fees. Travellers moving around Vietnam can use ECO77 to get 20 per cent off domestic Eco fares, excluding taxes and fees.
Vietjet airport experience
For those flying light, the $199 Eco fare is the headline act. For those who like a softer landing, the Deluxe offer includes useful extras, such as up to 40kg of checked baggage, free seat selection, and flexible schedule changes, depending on the ticket conditions. SkyBoss and Business add a little more theatre to the journey, with dedicated service and a broader food offering.
Vietjet’s Australia network is now a serious bridge into Vietnam. The airline’s official Australia flight pages list direct services to Australian cities including Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth, while Vietjet’s booking site carries current fare searches, add-ons and route details.
From Ho Chi Minh City, Australians can connect onwards to destinations including Tokyo, Osaka, New Delhi, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, Colombo, Almaty and Prague. In other words, Vietnam can be the holiday, the stopover or the clever gateway. A good itinerary is a fine thing; a good fare makes it behave even better.
Vietnam itself remains the star. Da Lat offers cool highland air, pine forests, coffee farms and cloud-hunting mornings that look as though someone has polished the horizon. Phu Quoc brings the beach escape. Central Vietnam offers islands, old towns, seafood and enough charm to make even the most jaded suitcase perk up.
Da Lat also has fresh aviation news. Vietnam News Agency has reported that Vietjet will resume five routes to Da Lat starting in August, following the expected reopening of Lien Khuong Airport on 19 August 2026. The restored links will connect Da Lat with Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Hai Phong, Vinh and Da Nang.
On board, Vietjet is promoting hot meals and Vietnamese favourites such as pho, banh mi and iced milk coffee. That beats the old “mystery tray with a bread roll” school of flying, and not by a small margin.
As always, travellers should check the fare rules before booking. Flight times vary by route, sale seats are limited, and peak dates may be excluded. Still, for Australians eyeing Vietnam and beyond, Vietjet’s July sale is a bright red nudge to stop dreaming and start planning.

She was never meant to stay behind a desk. Airline life followed, dividing her days between reservations and the airport floor, right where travel shows its true colours. Missed flights, tight hugs, frayed tempers, sudden joy, she saw it all, close up.
Now at Global Travel Media, My Thanh has traded ticket stubs for a keyboard. She writes the way she once worked: steady, clear-eyed and respectful of the road’s unpredictable rhythm, guiding readers through a world she knows from the inside.
