FROM May 25, Bangkok Airways will launch direct flights from Thailand’s capital to the city of Danang, Vietnam’s gateway to some of the country’s best golf courses.
The new route will be operated by a 144-seater Airbus 319 and depart Suvarnabhumi Airport at 11.00 on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, taking about four and a half hours to arrive at Da Nang International Airport.
Danang, which aims to attract more than 5 million visitors this year, is also served by direct international flights from Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Siem Reap, Seoul, Hong Kong and several cities in China including Shanghai. Danang welcomed 4.6 million visitors in 2015.
