Moving forward, Bamboo Airways will conduct its first verified direct flight on September 23, thereby paving the way for a series of activities to take place in the US.
This includes the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with San Francisco and Los Angeles International Airports, along with the debut of the local airline’s official representative office in the US.
The carrier is also anticipated to work alongside aircraft manufacturer Boeing and other partners in the US market.
Previously in May, Bamboo Airways was officially designated to operate charter flights to the US, with the airline being granted slots to operate regular direct flights from Ho Chi Minh City to San Francisco and Los Angeles.
