Vietjet takes
delivery of its first wide-body aircraft of A330
(Vietjet, HCM city, December 25, 2021) – In celebration of the 10th anniversary of its first flight on Christmas Day, Vietjet today welcomes its first wide-body aircraft of A330 to its world’s most modern and lively fleet, getting the airline ready for global flight network expansion and new passenger service experiences.
The Airbus
A330-300 aircraft, registered as VN-A811 with a soft and iridescent golden silk
strip livery, landed at Tan Son Nhat International Airport in the morning with
jubilant activities. The soft golden silk strip symbolizes the cultural
quintessence of Vietnam and Asia generally. It images the shape of the
mountains and the rivers alongside the countries and conveys the pride of the
oriental region’s legendary cultures. The unique livery also expresses the
connection between the traditional and the modern between the East and West
cultures and among the countries and the people around the world.
Equipped with
comfortable and spacious leather seats, along with quiet cabin in 12
business-seat and 365 normal-seat configuration, Vietjet’s new aircraft can
cover from medium-haul trips to true long-range distances of up to 11,750km
with fuel efficient and eco-friendly operation.
The A330 aircraft is powered by Rolls-Royce Trent 700 engine with Total Care, the flagship integrated technical services of the world’s leader in power systems and aerospace of Rolls-Royce, to ensure the airline’s engine efficiency and high technical reliability in operation.

Managing Director Dinh Viet Phuong said: “We are delighted to mark our 10th
anniversary today with an A330 aircraft’s arrival, which will help Vietjet grow
significantly in operation capacity and international footprint expansion. Our
fleet of A320 and A321 over the years has carried more than 100 million
passengers on tens of thousands of friendly, safe and affordable flights across
Vietnam and Asia-Pacific region. The A330 aircraft with a golden silk image is
also a part of Vietjet’s ongoing commitment to modernize fleet and elevate
services so that our customers can take farther flights more comfortably with
the most competitive ticket fares ever. We will also launch upgraded SkyBoss
services soon as another special gift for our customers.”
