Ahmedabad to Phu Quoc Direct Flight Starts 3 December 2026
Ahmedabad to Phu Quoc flight travellers have waited for is finally here: Sun PhuQuoc Airways will launch direct flights between Ahmedabad and Vietnam's Phu Quoc island from 3 December 2026. No more connecting through Bangkok, Singapore or Ho Chi Minh City — Gujarat gets a nonstop link to one of Southeast Asia's most beautiful islands, in under five hours. Launch one-way fares start from just ₹9,596 including taxes, making this one of the cheapest direct island escapes from India this winter.
Ahmedabad to Phu Quoc Direct Flight Schedule
The new service runs five times a week — Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays — on Airbus A321NX aircraft, with a flight time of approximately 4 hours 45 minutes. Sun PhuQuoc Airways is positioning the flight with a "Resort in the Sky" onboard experience, and the catering is built for Indian travellers: vegetarian meals, beef-free and pork-free menus, and Halal meals on request. The route is a genuine game-changer for Gujarat: until now, reaching Phu Quoc from Ahmedabad meant at least one connection and 9–12 hours of travel.
Launch Fares: Cheapest Way to Reach Phu Quoc from India
The airline has announced introductory one-way fares starting from ₹9,596 inclusive of taxes and fees on the first four flights in each direction, subject to seat availability. There is also a 20% discount on base fares for bookings made between 16 October and 13 November 2026, for travel between 3 December 2026 and 3 June 2027. Realistically, budget around ₹20,000–₹28,000 return per person if you book during the launch window, and ₹30,000–₹45,000 return once the cheapest seats are gone. For context, that puts a Phu Quoc holiday within the same flight budget as Bangkok or Singapore — with far quieter beaches.
Phu Quoc Visa Free Entry for Indians
Phu Quoc has a special visa exemption that makes it one of the easiest international trips for Indians: if you fly directly into Phu Quoc International Airport on an international flight and stay within the island, you can enter visa-free for up to 30 days — no e-visa, no fee, no paperwork queue. This direct Ahmedabad flight qualifies. If you plan to continue to mainland Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Hanoi), apply for a Vietnam e-visa before you travel, because the island-only exemption does not cover the mainland.

Why Phu Quoc Is Booming Right Now
Phu Quoc is not a quiet secret anymore. Accommodation searches by Indian travellers for Phu Quoc jumped 124% year-on-year for the Oct–Nov 2026 festive window, one of the sharpest rises in Asia. The island delivers white-sand beaches like Long Beach and Sao Beach, the world's longest over-sea cable car to Hon Thom island, VinWonders theme park and Vinpearl Safari, the Duong Dong Night Market, and pearl farms — all at prices well below Bali or the Maldives. December to March is the dry season, with sunny days and calm seas: the perfect window for this new flight.
5-Day Phu Quoc Plan on the New Flight
Day 1: Land at Phu Quoc, check in near Long Beach, sunset at Duong Dong Night Market. Day 2: Hon Thom cable car, Sao Beach, snorkelling. Day 3: VinWonders + Vinpearl Safari, Grand World canal ride at night. Day 4: North-island beaches, pearl farm, spa. Day 5: Morning at Khem Beach, fly home. A 4-night trip works out at approximately ₹55,000–₹85,000 per person including flights, a 3–4★ hotel with breakfast, food, transfers and activities — always approximate, and fares move fast on a brand-new route.
Pro Tips for Indians on the New Route
- Book in the 16 Oct–13 Nov launch window to lock the 20% base-fare offer; the ₹9,596 seats will vanish first.
- Carry your return ticket and hotel booking printout — immigration may ask for both.
- Pack light beachwear plus one light jacket; December evenings are pleasant, not cold.
- Download offline maps — island data roaming can be patchy outside Duong Dong.
- Combine Phu Quoc with a Vietnam e-visa if you want a mainland add-on later.
