Vietjet
and AVIC Cabin Systems enter comprehensive cooperation in aircraft interiors
and aviation supporting industries
(Vietjet, Beijing, April
16, 2026) – Vietjet and AVIC Cabin Systems have exchanged a
comprehensive cooperation agreement in the field of aircraft interiors and
aviation supporting industries. The partnership marks a new strategic chapter
between the two parties, amid increasingly strengthened industrial and
technological cooperation between Vietnam and China.
The event
took place at the Embassy of Vietnam in Beijing, under the witness of Vietnam’s
Deputy Prime Minister Phan Van Giang, along with senior leaders and
representatives of leading enterprises from both countries, within the
framework of the State visit of Vietnam’s General Secretary and President To
Lam to China at the invitation of China’s General Secretary and President Xi
Jinping.
Under the
agreement, the two sides will collaborate to develop advanced aircraft interior
solutions, gradually enhance manufacturing capabilities, promote supply chain
localization, and facilitate technology transfer. With Jiatai – a member of
AVIC Cabin Systems – the cooperation also aims to develop a sustainable
aviation supporting industry ecosystem in Vietnam, with the capability to
integrate more deeply into the global supply chain.
Representing
AVIC Cabin Systems, Mr. He Caifu, CEO of Jiatai, stated that the company is
committed to delivering innovative solutions and international-standard
services, while working alongside Vietjet to effectively implement projects and
build a long-term partnership based on trust and quality.
Beyond
manufacturing cooperation, the agreement is expected to serve as a platform to
promote technology transfer, enhance Vietnam’s aviation industrial
capabilities, and strengthen regional value chain connectivity. Together, the
two sides aim to shape new links within the rapidly evolving aviation ecosystem
in the Asia-Pacific region.
During
Vietnam’s General Secretary and President To Lam’s visit to China, Vietjet also
announced five new routes to China: Hanoi – Hangzhou, Enshi, Huangshan, and Ho
Chi Minh City – Guilin, Huangshan. Among these, the Hanoi – Enshi and Ho Chi
Minh City – Guilin routes have been in operation since early April 2026.
These new
routes contribute to connecting key economic, cultural, and tourism centers,
promoting trade, investment, and people-to-people exchanges between the two
countries, while also responding to the Vietnam – China Tourism Cooperation
Year.
With its
ambition to become a multinational aviation group, Vietjet continues to expand
its international network, invest in a modern fleet, and proactively deepen its
participation in the aviation value chain. The airline remains at the forefront
of integrating advanced and innovative aviation technologies.
The rapid
expansion of its international network is also driving corresponding demand for
stronger aviation industrial capabilities and supply chain development. In this
context, cooperation with AVIC Cabin Systems enables Vietjet to enhance its
industrial capacity, expand its operational scale, and progressively integrate
more deeply into the global aviation value chain. AVIC Cabin Systems is a member
of the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC) – one of the world’s
leading aviation industrial groups, with a comprehensive ecosystem spanning
research, design, manufacturing, and supply. With total assets of hundreds of
billions of US dollars, AVIC has over 100 subsidiaries, 26 listed companies,
and a global workforce of more than 400,000 employees.
Cooperation
agreements between Vietnamese and Chinese enterprises continue to make positive
contributions to advancing economic, industrial, and aviation technology
collaboration, further strengthening the Vietnam–China Comprehensive Strategic
Cooperative Partnership in the new phase of development.
