Vietjet orders 20 widebody A330neo aircraft for future expansion plans

Must read

Vietjet, Vietnam’s largest private airline, has placed a new order with Airbus for 20 widebody A330-900 aircraft to support strategic expansion over the next decade.

The agreement was signed in Hanoi by Vietjet Chairwoman Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao and Wouter van Wersch, President Airbus International. The ceremony was witnessed by Vietnamese President Luong Cuong and French President Emmanuel Macron, during an official visit to the country by the French Head of State.

This long-term order will support Vietjet’s ongoing international flight network expansion, enabling the airline to increase flights on high capacity routes across the Asia-Pacific region, as well as to introduce future long haul services to Europe.

Vietjet Chairwoman Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao said: “These modern Airbus aircraft, with the latest levels of efficiency and lower fuel consumption, have accompanied Vietjet’s growth and will continue to support Vietjet’s global flight network expansion. Our long-term investment in a modern, environmentally responsible fleet reflects our commitment to strengthening economic and technological ties between Vietnam and France. Vietjet remains dedicated to delivering greater connectivity and sustainable air travel for millions of passengers in Vietnam and around the world.

Wouter van Wersch, President Airbus International said: “Vietjet has established itself as one of the fastest-growing airlines in the world, bringing low fares with warm Vietnamese hospitality. We are proud that the carrier has selected the A330neo as its widebody aircraft of choice to build on its success, and we look forward to continuing our partnership as Vietjet expands its reach.”

The new contract with Airbus doubles its firm orders for the A330neo to 40 aircraft. In addition, the carrier has 96 A320neo Family single aisle aircraft on order. Vietjet currently operates an all-Airbus fleet of 115 aircraft, comprising 108 single aisle A320 Family aircraft and seven A330-300s.

Vietjet will continue to offer passengers a wide range of comfortable travel options, especially in Business class, featuring diverse in-flight dining services and a modern aircraft experience. These are delivered by a professional, cheerful, and youthful flight crew, supported by an expansive international flight network and a modern wide-body fleet that is being heavily invested in.
