The Ministry of Transport decided on the highest ceiling price for domestic air tickets of 4 million VND.

The Ministry of Transport issued a circular regulating the ceiling price of air tickets.

The latest point of this circular is that the State management agency does not regulate the price framework (ceiling price and floor price) for airline tickets as currently, but instead only regulates the ceiling price.

Accordingly, domestic airfares are classified according to the distance of the flight group. Specifically, the flight group with a distance of less than 500km serving socio -economic development (flights to remote areas, island borders and operated by only one airline) has a ceiling price of 1.6 million VND/one-way ticket.

Other flight groups under 500 km have a ceiling price of 1.7 million VND/one-way ticket.

Flights from 500 km to under 850 km have a ceiling price of VND 2,250 million/ticket/way;

For flight groups from 850 km to under 1,000 km, the ceiling price is 2,890 million VND/ticket/way;

Group from 1,000 km to under 1,280 km has price of 3.4 million VND/ticket/way;

For groups of 1,280 km or more, the ceiling price is 4 million VND/ticket/way.

The maximum service price specified includes all costs that passengers must pay for an air ticket, excluding the following fees: Value added tax; fees collected on behalf of businesses providing passenger terminal services and security services, including prices for passenger services at the airport; prices for passenger and baggage security; additional service fees.

For children from 2 to under 12 years old, some services are only charged at 50% of the prescribed price.

Regarding the prices of basic essential services at airports such as pho, vermicelli, bread, etc., the Ministry of Transport stipulates that businesses decide their own service costs, but not exceeding 15% of the prescribed maximum price.

The Circular takes effect from January 1, 2025.
