Air New Zealand has confirmed that it will operate a second season of direct services between Auckland and Vietnam next year.

And this time, passengers will be offered the chance to experience the airline’s newest long-haul jet, the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner.

For the 2017 season, Air New Zealand will operate twice weekly flights between Auckland to Ho Chi Minh City using the 302 seat Dreamliner, offering a choice of flat-bed seats in business class, premium economy and economy class seats, and the ‘Economy Skycouch’ concept, which converts a row of three economy class seats into a bed.

Services will operate between 24 June and 25 October 2017. Tickets are already on sale.
