Vietnam Railways (VNR) has officially transitioned to the sale of approximately 300,000 tickets for the service period spanning January 23 to February 25, 2027. To meet demand, the railway sector will deploy 57 trains with over 800 carriages, including regular Thong Nhat services and additional trains connecting provinces such as Da Nang, Vinh, Nha Trang, and Phan Thiet.

Regarding official holiday schedules, the Vietnamese Ministry of Home Affairs has announced that civil servants and public employees will receive a 7-day continuous break for the 2027 Lunar New Year, from Thursday, February 4, to Wednesday, February 10, 2027.
