The signing event took place in the presence of Deputy Prime Minister Suphajee Suthumpun and Minister of Tourism and Sports Surasak Phancharoenworakul of the Kingdom of Thailand.
The event continues Vietjet's outstanding cooperation highlights in Thailand, from the milestone of 50 million passengers, the new generation Boeing fleet development program and the MRO U-Tapao project to initiatives on football, sports, culture and community on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and Thailand.
Expanding aviation connectivity, promoting "Two nations - One journey
Vietjet and the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) will coordinate to promote existing routes, study expanding new routes between Vietnam and Thailand, and at the same time take advantage of Vietjet's increasingly developed international flight network to connect tourists to key markets such as Australia, India, China, Japan, Korea, Kazakhstan, Czech Republic and many other potential destinations.
The two sides simultaneously implemented the "Thailand - Vietnam: Two Countries, One Journey" initiative, promoting Vietnam and Thailand as an attractive linked tourism journey of Asia through promotion, communication and destination promotion activities on Vietjet's diverse ecosystem and global partner network.
The cooperation also aims to develop high-value tourism (MICE, resorts, golf, health care) associated with sustainable tourism and aviation, cultural preservation and support for local communities.
Promoting tourism through football, sports, culture and community development
Vietjet and TAT will coordinate to promote cultural, sports, entertainment, culinary and tourism activities, in which football is identified as the focus of sports cooperation. Through community football programs, tourism events associated with football, sponsorship and activities for fans, football is expected to become an important bridge to strengthen understanding, friendship and people-to-people exchanges between Vietnam - Thailand and the ASEAN region.
For more than a decade, Vietjet has persistently accompanied Vietnamese football and futsal through many sponsorship activities, community sports development and support for national teams.
Through this, Vietnam and Thailand are expected to strengthen their role as important gateways connecting tourism, trade, investment, and at the same time promote football, sports and cultural exchanges between ASEAN and the world.
Strategic bridge between Vietnam and Thailand
Chairman of Vietjet Group's Board of Directors, Dr. Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao shared: "When people are connected, opportunities will be opened; when countries are connected, prosperity will be multiplied. Through cooperation with the Tourism Authority of Thailand, Vietjet wishes to work with partners to build journeys that not only connect destinations but also connect culture, communities and new growth drivers, contributing to fostering Vietnam-Thailand friendship and promoting an ASEAN that is increasingly connected, dynamic and prosperous.
After more than a decade of development in Thailand, Vietjet Group has served 50 million passengers, contributing to promoting connectivity, people-to-people exchanges and economic cooperation between the two countries. Through long-term cooperation and investment programs, Vietjet continues to affirm its role as a strategic bridge between Vietnam, Thailand and the region, contributing to the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between the two countries and the common development of ASEAN.
