There will be four trips either way between downtown HCM City and Can Gio district and eight trips either way between Can Gio and Vung Tau.

They will operate from Bach Dang Wharf in District 1 – rather than Nha Rong Pier in District 4, from where Greenlines operates its hydrofoils to Vung Tau and Thanh An Wharf in Can Gio.

In Vung Tau, the hydrofoils will continue to berth at Ho May Wharf.

Can Gio residents and officials are entitled to a 50 percent discount, while it is free for disabled people.

The company plans to operate boats with 50, 96 and 136 seats.
