All Nippon
Airways (ANA) and Vietnam Airlines (HVN) will initiate cargo code-share
on Osaka-Ho Chi Minh City, operated by Vietnam Airlines, from March 25
and on Tokyo-Ho Chi Minh City, operated by ANA, from March 27.
On March 27, ANA will connect the capital of Japan, Tokyo and the
business center of Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh City. With the start of this
service and the cargo code-share, the carriers will take another step
towards strengthening their cooperative relationship.
The volume of goods transported by airfreight, such as primary products
and perishables between Japan and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam is
expected to increase, this will be accompanied by expanded transport of
electronic equipment parts and high technology products as the economy
in Vietnam takes off. With this growth, ANA and HVN will be playing
significant roles in strengthening the ties of a commercial partnership
that has been gaining steam year after year.
Add in this new cargo code-share with the passenger code-share flights
between Tokyo and Ho Chi Minh City and expectation is that the exchange
of people, goods and culture between Japan and Vietnam will be promoted
to an entirely new level.
A summary of the cargo code-share may be found below.
