The Ho Chi Minh City Management Center of Public Transport under the Municipal Department of Transport yesterday held an opening ceremony of bus line No.109 operating on the route of Sai Gon Bus Station – Tan Son Nhat Airport managed by Futa Bus Lines without subsidy.
Bus Route No.109 has fares from VND8,000 to VND15,000 per turn.
The travel flow in Tan Son Nhat airport is very high with over 700 flights and around 100,000 passengers on average. However, there is only one bus route, No.152 operating from Trung Son Residential Area to the airport, which does not meet the travel demand for passengers at the current time.
General Director of Futa Bus Lines Dao Viet Anh said that bus route No.109 has fares from VND8,000 per turn for those who travel less than half of the distance and VND15,000 for those who travel more than half of the distance. This route will be officially put into exploitation from September 13.
To meet the demand and attract more customers, the 20-seat buses including 14 seats and six footholds are designed to carry luggage. The bus shall operate 110 trips daily, starting at 5:45 a.m. and finishing at 11:45 p.m.
One more bus line to Tan Son Nhat airport is exploited.
