Sun PhuQuoc Airways plans to launch daily nonstop Hanoi–Shanghai flights on November 26 using Airbus A321neo aircraft. VnExpress reported that the route will be the carrier’s fourth to China, following its Ho Chi Minh City–Shanghai service introduced on October 15.
Overnight departure, next-day arrival
The first 9G674 flight is scheduled to leave Nội Bài at 23:05 on November 26 and reach Pudong at 03:00 the following day. Return flight 9G675 is planned to depart Shanghai at 04:15 local time on November 27 and arrive in Hanoi at 06:55.
These times belong to the respective airports’ local time zones; Shanghai and Hanoi do not share the same zone. The outbound arrival falls on the next calendar day, rather than completing within November 26.
The carrier targets business travellers, investors, tourists and people visiting relatives. Those intended customers are not a disclosed booking total or load factor.
Building on earlier China routes
Before Shanghai, the airline introduced links between Chengdu and Phú Quốc and Ho Chi Minh City in July and August. Shanghai is set to become its first Chinese destination directly connected to both Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.
A promotion offers 20% off the base fare for tickets issued from October 31 through November 30. Taxes and fees are excluded, so the reduction does not apply to the entire ticket payment. The next operational milestones are the scheduled inaugural flight on November 26 and return on November 27; the source does not confirm those future flights have operated.
