The airline is offering one-way fares from RM370, together with a 20 per cent discount on base fares across all fare classes for bookings made through the airline's official website or mobile application, excluding peak travel periods.

"Malaysia represents one of the most promising international source markets for Phu Quoc tourism, while Kuala Lumpur serves as one of Southeast Asia's key aviation hubs with extensive regional and long-haul connectivity," the airline said.

It said the new route is expected to strengthen tourism flows between the two countries while attracting international transit passengers travelling through Kuala Lumpur.

Looking ahead, it said Sun PhuQuoc Airways plans to further expand its international network throughout 2026 by introducing new services across Northeast Asia, India, Russia and Central Asia, while strengthening connections between Vietnam's major economic and tourism destinations.

The airline also expects to increase its fleet to 32 aircraft by the end of 2026, supporting continued network expansion.
