Enhancing Vietnam-US relations Since 2017, Vietjet has established strategic partnerships with leading US corporations such as Boeing, GE, CFM, Pratt & Whitney, Honeywell, with a total commercial value of nearly 50 billion USD. The agreement to purchase 200 Boeing 737 Max aircraft has demonstrated Vietjet's commitment to improving service quality and expanding its fleet. In 2025, the first 14 Boeing 737 Max aircraft will be delivered to Vietjet, marking a new development in trade relations between the two countries. In addition to aviation agreements, Vietjet is also negotiating cooperation with major technology corporations such as Microsoft, Amazon Web Service, Apple, Google, as well as SpaceX to deploy advanced technology solutions such as satellite internet on flights, promoting the application of artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, big data in the airline's operations. Therefore, Ms. Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao's attendance at the "Friends of Vietnam Summit" event at President-elect Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort and meeting with many international partners is not only an opportunity for Vietjet to demonstrate its capabilities but also contributes to strengthening the relationship between Vietnam and the United States in many fields. Vietjet's trip is not only meaningful in terms of economy and trade but also a bridge for cultural exchange, strengthening friendship and cooperation between the two nations. Ms. Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao had the opportunity to discuss with Mr. Donald Trump and US business leaders about strategic cooperation opportunities and initiatives to promote trade relations between the two countries. One of the important topics discussed was how to promote trade between Vietnam and the United States in a more balanced direction, along with potential projects to help promote sustainable development for both economies.

Vietjet Chairwoman Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao emphasized Vietjet's commitment to maintaining sustainable values and promoting long-term cooperation with the United States. The airline also affirms its pioneering role in providing quality aviation services, while continuing to expand new business opportunities in high-tech and innovative fields.
