The service is operated every five days by Russian airline Nordwind.
According to Hoang Thi Phong Thu, chairwoman of Anh Duong Tourist Company, the domestic partner with Pegas Touristik, Russian tourist arrivals in Vietnam are in decline, so a small increase in flight frequency is still good news.
“In the peak travel season last year we served around 120 flights a month but saw a mere 30-35 flights last month,” she said.
“The market has yet to show positive signs but we’re still trying to maintain operations. Pegas Touristik brings Russian tourists to 22 foreign markets but still regards Vietnam, Thailand, Egypt and Turkey as its four major markets.”
Russia is an emerging market for Vietnam’s tourism sector in recent years. However, Russian arrivals in Vietnam have shrunk rapidly in the past few months due to Western sanctions.
More than 68,000 Russians visited Vietnam in the first two months this year, down 25.7% against a year earlier. The fall in Russian tourists has led many chartered flights to be canceled. Vietnam Airlines has suspended Moscow-Cam Ranh service.
From March 18 to 21, the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism and some enterprises attended an international travel and tourism exhibition in Russia to meet partners and hold a roadshow to promote tourist destinations in Vietnam.
However, fewer Vietnamese enterprises participated in the exhibition than in previous years.
