Why Vietnam, Why Now
Robert Ludera, LOT’s Chief Commercial Officer, called Vietnam one of Asia’s most dynamically developing countries. He pointed to the country’s cultural sites, cuisine and landscapes as strong pulls for European travellers.
Halong Bay and Hanoi’s old quarter both feature among the route’s biggest draws. Ludera said the destination offers a level of authenticity that keeps drawing repeat visitors.
A Growing Asian Network
LOT has steadily built out its long-haul network from Warsaw in recent years. Long-haul routes now run consistently on the airline’s Boeing 787 Dreamliner fleet. The carrier has operated since 1929, making it the 11th oldest airline in the world.
Warsaw to Hanoi is a long way on paper. Once the Dreamliners start flying it, it’s just one connection away.
