Chengdu Airlines operates the TFU – HAN route with a frequency of 4 flights per week, departing on the evenings of Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday, utilizing modern Airbus A320 aircraft. The estimated flight time is just over 2 hours per leg, offering a convenient and time-saving option for passengers traveling between Hanoi and Chengdu – a Chinese city renowned for its distinctive cultural heritage and rich culinary scene.

Hanoi becoming Chengdu Airlines' 5th international destination (following destinations in Thailand, Russia, and Tajikistan) and its very first route to Vietnam marks a significant step in the airline's strategy to expand its international network.

Notably, the launch of this route by Chengdu Airlines coincided precisely with the peak April 30th holiday period. This timing not only signifies an expansion of the international network but also positively contributes to the growth in international passenger traffic through Noi Bai International Airport.
