Indian travelers planning a beach holiday in Vietnam will soon have a new nonstop option. Sun PhuQuoc Airways is launching direct flights between Ahmedabad and Phu Quoc in December 2026, marking the Vietnamese carrier's first route to India.

According to the airline's official schedule, the inaugural Phu Quoc–Ahmedabad flight will operate on December 2, 2026, while the first return departure from Ahmedabad to Phu Quoc leaves at 1:00 a.m. on December 3. The route will initially operate five times per week before increasing to daily service in early February 2027.

The new nonstop service is especially significant for travelers from Gujarat because it removes the need to connect through another Indian or Southeast Asian airport before reaching Phu Quoc.

Sun PhuQuoc Airways is also celebrating the launch with a 20% discount on eligible base fares using promo code AMDPQC, alongside introductory one-way fares on the first flights.

Sun PhuQuoc Airways Enters the Indian Market

The Ahmedabad route represents an important milestone for Sun PhuQuoc Airways.

The airline began commercial flying in November 2025, positioning itself around what it calls a destination-focused or “resort aviation” model centered on Phu Quoc. Its first commercial services connected Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang with the island.

International expansion followed in 2026, with the airline building direct links between Phu Quoc and overseas tourism markets.

The Ahmedabad service is particularly important because it becomes Sun PhuQuoc Airways' first direct route to India.

For Indian travelers, the result is straightforward: visitors from Ahmedabad and surrounding areas will be able to reach Phu Quoc without a stop in cities such as Bangkok, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City.

Ahmedabad to Phu Quoc Flight Schedule

The scheduled return service from India will operate as flight 9G314.

Ahmedabad → Phu Quoc

Flight: 9G314
Departure: Ahmedabad – 01:00
Arrival: Phu Quoc – 07:15
Operating days: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday
Aircraft: Airbus A321NX

Phu Quoc → Ahmedabad

Flight: 9G315
Departure: Phu Quoc – 19:35
Arrival: Ahmedabad – 23:30
Operating days: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday

AeroRoutes independently lists the same scheduled times and says the service is planned to increase to daily operations from February 2, 2027.

Flight times are local and can change before launch, so passengers should reconfirm their itinerary after booking.

How Long Is the Ahmedabad to Phu Quoc Flight?

Sun PhuQuoc Airways describes the nonstop journey between the two cities as approximately 5 hours and 25 minutes.

Some Indian launch announcements have described the journey as roughly four hours and 45 minutes depending on direction and schedule assumptions, so passengers should rely on the actual timings displayed on their confirmed ticket.

Either way, the nonstop flight removes the additional waiting time associated with a connecting itinerary.

For Indian tourists heading directly to Phu Quoc, that is likely to be one of the new route's biggest advantages.

Sun PhuQuoc Airways Ahmedabad–Phu Quoc Fare

Indian-market reports announcing the route cite one-way fares starting at approximately:

₹9,596 including taxes and fees

on eligible introductory inventory.

From Vietnam, the airline is advertising introductory one-way fares from:

VND 2,619,000 including taxes and fees

for the first four flights in both directions under the launch promotion.

These are promotional starting fares, not guaranteed prices for every date.

Your actual fare will depend on:

• Departure date

• Return date

• Remaining promotional inventory

• Fare class

• Number of passengers

• Optional services

• Taxes and fees applicable to the booking

Travelers should compare several dates before purchasing.

Get 20% Off With Promo Code AMDPQC

Sun PhuQuoc Airways has introduced a launch promotion for the new route.

Use:

AMDPQC

to receive:

20% off eligible base fares

The official promotional details are:

Booking period: October 16 – November 13, 2026

Eligible travel: Through June 3, 2027

Discount: 20% off the base fare

Booking channels: Sun PhuQuoc Airways website and mobile app.

The airline makes an important distinction: the 20% saving applies to the base fare, not necessarily the entire ticket price.

Taxes and other applicable fees remain subject to the fare rules.

For example, if a ticket consists of:

Base fare: ₹10,000
Taxes and fees: ₹4,000

a 20% base-fare discount would reduce the ₹10,000 component rather than the full ₹14,000 total.

23 kg Checked Baggage Included

Unlike many low-cost international fares where passengers must add checked baggage separately, Sun PhuQuoc Airways says passengers on the Ahmedabad–Phu Quoc route will receive:

23 kg checked baggage

plus:

7 kg cabin baggage

included with the fare.

The airline's general baggage policy also lists standard Economy checked baggage at one piece up to 23 kg, with maximum combined dimensions of 158 cm. Business Class receives two pieces of up to 23 kg each.

This baggage inclusion can make a noticeable difference when comparing Sun PhuQuoc Airways with another carrier.

Always compare:

Ticket + baggage + meals + seats

rather than looking only at the advertised airfare.

Meals Are Included on the India Route

Sun PhuQuoc Airways says passengers flying the new route will receive meals and beverages onboard.

The airline has also adapted the menu to the Indian market.

According to its official announcement, meals on the route will not contain beef or pork.

Options will include:

• Chicken

• Fish

• Vegetarian meals

• Halal meals on request.

Passengers requiring a specific meal should request it early and verify its availability on their individual booking.

Airbus A321NX Will Operate the Route

Sun PhuQuoc Airways plans to operate the Ahmedabad service using its next-generation Airbus A321NX, part of the A321neo family.

The airline describes the aircraft as offering:

• Spacious cabin

• Larger overhead storage

• Modern LED lighting

• Large windows

• HEPA air filtration

• New-generation LEAP-1A engines

The A321neo has a maximum range of approximately 7,400 km, making it suitable for regional international routes such as India–Vietnam.

Sun PhuQuoc Airways lists possible configurations including:

8 Business Class + 200 Economy seats

or:

236 all-Economy seats.

Aircraft configuration can change, so travelers should rely on the seat map displayed for their particular flight.

What Is Sun PhuQuoc Airways?

Sun PhuQuoc Airways is a relatively new Vietnamese airline developed by Sun Group.

It launched commercial operations on November 1, 2025, initially connecting Phu Quoc with major Vietnamese cities.

Rather than simply using Phu Quoc as another destination, the airline is building its network around the island as a hub.

Sun PhuQuoc Airways describes its concept as connecting Phu Quoc directly with important domestic and international tourism and economic centers.

Its current fleet includes Airbus:

• A321neo / A321NX

• A321ceo

• A320neo.

The airline is expanding rapidly and has also signed an agreement covering 40 Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners as part of its longer-term fleet strategy.

Why Ahmedabad?

Ahmedabad gives Sun PhuQuoc Airways access to one of western India's largest economic and tourism markets.

For travelers across Gujarat, the route can be particularly useful for:

• Beach holidays

• Honeymoons

• Family vacations

• Destination weddings

• Group tours

• Leisure trips to Vietnam

Previously, many Ahmedabad travelers heading to Phu Quoc needed at least one connection.

The new route creates a direct link between Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport (AMD) and Phu Quoc International Airport (PQC).

It may also attract travelers from nearby parts of Gujarat who previously traveled via Mumbai or Delhi for international connections.

Why Phu Quoc Is Becoming Popular With Indian Travelers

Phu Quoc is an island destination off Vietnam's southwest coast.

It has become increasingly popular for:

• Beaches

• Luxury resorts

• Honeymoons

• Destination weddings

• Family vacations

• Water activities

• Entertainment

• Island tours

Vietnam News Agency reported that Phu Quoc received approximately 150,000 Indian visitors in 2025, a rise of 328% from the previous year, despite the absence of a nonstop India service.

Across Vietnam, Indian arrivals reached around 746,000 in 2025, making India the country's sixth-largest international source market according to the same report.

Those numbers help explain why an airline centered on Phu Quoc sees India as an important expansion market.

Best Things to Do in Phu Quoc

The direct flight makes the island particularly attractive for travelers looking for a relatively simple beach vacation from western India.

Relax on Phu Quoc's Beaches

Phu Quoc is known for tropical coastline and warm waters.

Popular beach areas include Long Beach, Sao Beach and Khem Beach.

Travelers can choose between large resorts, boutique properties and quieter beach stays.

Visit Sunset Town

Sunset Town in southern Phu Quoc is known for Mediterranean-inspired architecture, entertainment and sunset views.

It has become one of the island's major tourist attractions.

Take the Hon Thom Cable Car

The Hon Thom cable car provides panoramic views over the sea and surrounding islands.

It can be combined with attractions around southern Phu Quoc.

Explore the Night Market

Phu Quoc Night Market is popular for local food, seafood, desserts and souvenirs.

Go Island Hopping

Boat excursions can take visitors to nearby islands for swimming, snorkeling and beach stops.

Visit Local Fishing Villages

Travelers interested in a quieter side of Phu Quoc can explore villages and coastal areas outside the main resort zones.

Phu Quoc Visa-Free Stay: Important for Indian Travelers

One feature that can make Phu Quoc especially attractive is its special visa policy.

Vietnam's official tourism portal states that foreign passport holders can stay in Phu Quoc for up to 30 days without a visa, provided they meet the conditions of the Phu Quoc exemption. Travelers transiting through another international Vietnamese entry point and continuing directly to Phu Quoc can also qualify under specified conditions.

The new direct Ahmedabad flight simplifies this considerably because passengers are flying directly to Phu Quoc.

However, there is an important limitation.

If you plan to leave Phu Quoc and visit destinations such as:

• Ho Chi Minh City

• Hanoi

• Da Nang

• Nha Trang

• Hoi An

you should check Vietnam's normal visa requirements for your passport rather than relying solely on the Phu Quoc exemption.

Immigration rules can change, so always verify them with official Vietnamese authorities before travel.

Ideal Phu Quoc Itinerary From Ahmedabad

A direct flight makes a short island vacation much easier.

Day 1 – Arrive in Phu Quoc

With the current schedule, flight 9G314 arrives around 7:15 a.m.

After completing immigration and baggage collection, travel to your hotel and spend the rest of the day relaxing.

Day 2 – South Phu Quoc

Explore southern beaches, Sunset Town and the Hon Thom area.

Day 3 – Island Tour

Take an island-hopping or snorkeling excursion.

Day 4 – Resort and Beach Day

Spend a slower day enjoying your resort, spa or beach.

Day 5 – Markets and Local Attractions

Explore local food, shopping and island attractions.

Day 6 – Return to Ahmedabad

Depending on your flight day, check out and travel back to Phu Quoc International Airport.

A five- or six-night trip can therefore work well without requiring domestic connections inside Vietnam.

Is Phu Quoc Good for Honeymoon Couples?

Yes.

Phu Quoc is particularly suitable for couples because it offers:

• Beachfront resorts

• Private villas

• Sunset experiences

• Spas

• Romantic dining

• Island excursions

The introduction of a direct flight from Ahmedabad removes one of the biggest inconveniences for Gujarat-based honeymooners: connecting through another airport.

That could make Phu Quoc a stronger competitor to destinations such as:

• Phuket

• Bali

• Maldives

• Mauritius

• Krabi

Is Phu Quoc Good for Families?

Families can also find plenty to do.

The island combines beach resorts with entertainment, outdoor attractions, restaurants and excursions.

When choosing a hotel, families should compare:

• Family rooms

• Swimming pools

• Breakfast

• Beach access

• Airport transfer

• Children's facilities

• Distance from attractions

Since the Ahmedabad flight arrives early in the morning, it is also worth checking whether your resort provides early check-in or luggage storage.

Sun PhuQuoc Airways Plans Daily Flights in 2027

The five-times-weekly launch is only the first stage.

Sun PhuQuoc Airways plans to increase the Ahmedabad–Phu Quoc route to:

7 flights per week

from February 2, 2027, according to the currently filed schedule.

Daily flights would make the route significantly more flexible for both leisure travelers and tour operators.

The airline has also indicated broader ambitions for the Indian market. Previous company announcements have identified Indian cities including Mumbai and New Delhi among planned international expansion destinations.

Those routes should still be treated as planned rather than confirmed until firm schedules and tickets are published.

How to Book the Ahmedabad–Phu Quoc Flight

Travelers can book through:

• Sun PhuQuoc Airways' official website

• Sun PhuQuoc Airways mobile app

• Authorized agents and ticket offices.

Enter promo code AMDPQC

during the eligible booking period.

Before payment, check:

• Meal request

• Seat selection

Booking Tips for the New Route

Compare several dates

Because the route operates five times per week initially, shifting your trip by one day may produce a different fare.

Book the launch offer before November 13

The current 20% base-fare discount expires on November 13, 2026.

Check the total price

Do not judge the fare only by the percentage discount.

Compare the total amount after taxes.

Consider baggage value

The included 23 kg checked + 7 kg cabin allowance can make the fare more competitive than a cheaper-looking ticket where baggage is charged separately.

Verify visa requirements

If your entire holiday is limited to Phu Quoc, check your eligibility for the island's visa-free policy.

If you are traveling elsewhere in Vietnam, check the appropriate Vietnam visa rules.
