Phu Quoc Welcomes First Russian Flight for 2026–27 Winter Season
Over 370 Russian visitors arrived in Phu Quoc for the 2026–27 winter season; reports do not establish a regular public flight timetable.
More than 370 Russian tourists arrived in Phu Quoc on September 27 aboard flight VJ2867 from Krasnoyarsk, marking the start of the island’s 2026–27 winter tourism season. The flight landed after a six-hour, 20-minute journey.
A seasonal arrival, not a published timetable
The arrival ceremony opened the 2026–27 winter campaign for the Russian market. Anex Vietnam said it expects to bring about 15,000 Russian visitors to the island each month during the season; that is the company’s forecast, not a count of confirmed future arrivals.
The reports document this inaugural flight but do not establish its future frequency or public ticket availability. Travellers should check current airline schedules before planning around a direct Russia–Phu Quoc service; one seasonal arrival is not evidence of a regular passenger timetable.
