Vietjet has reached a new milestone with the delivery of the 101st aircraft at Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Ho Chi Minh City.

The arrival of the new 240-seat A321neo ACF aircraft represents Vietjet's commitment to constant fleet expansion, with a total of 384 aircraft on order from leading manufacturers worldwide.

Vietjet's cabin crew purser, Minh Huyen, who was there to welcome the airline's first aircraft in 2011, joined the ceremony for the 101st aircraft and expressed her pride. "I am honoured to witness this historical moment as Vietjet welcomes the 101st aircraft to Vietnam today. Together with our colleagues, we have been a part of realizing the flying dreams of hundreds of millions of passengers. We would like to extend special thanks to our beloved passengers for their trust and companionship throughout this journey. Vietjet's fleet will continue to grow as we strive to make every flight a joyful and pleasant experience for passengers around the world." 

Despite the challenges faced, Vietjet has successfully served over 178 million passengers, connecting countries and contributing to business ties and trade opportunities. The airline has also played a significant role in the growth of Vietnam's aviation industry and the Asia-Pacific region, solidifying the region's position on the global aviation map. 

The introduction of the new A321neo ACF aircraft allows Vietjet to achieve significant reductions in fuel consumption, with at least a 16% decrease, as well as up to 75% less noise and up to 50% fewer emissions.
