The railway sector started selling train tickets to serve the rising travel demand of passengers on Tet at 8 a.m. on the morning of October 6.
As of October 7, few seats are left on HCMC-Hanoi trips on January 24-25, 2025. The one-way ticket is more than VND2.5-2.8 million per person in a 6-berth cabin and around VND3.2 million per person in a 4-berth cabin.
The railway sector is prioritizing the sale of tickets for long-distance journeys, and tickets for peak days from January 24 -26, 2025, are nearly sold out.

Train operations will be organized from January 15, 2025, to February 16, 2025. The railway industry will regularly operate 22 pairs of Thong Nhat trains between Hanoi station and Saigon station and 13 pairs of regional trains.
