Vietnam Airlines takes off with the message "Orange"

Vietnam Airlines' "Orange" flights bring passengers special experiences with meaningful messages about gender equality and respect for women and children.

Different from the usual green shirt color, on flight VN253 departing from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City on November 18, from ground staff to flight crew all wore orange shirts with ribbons and flower pins of the same color carrying the message "Respect women and children". On the flight, all passengers also received meaningful gifts such as orange shirts with the Vietnam Airlines logo, special gifts and sweet milk tea cups. Through this activity, the airline wants to spread the message of protecting women and children, promoting gender equality in society to passengers.

Foreign guests excitedly checked in with the event's gift.

This is an "Orange" flight - the color chosen by the United Nations as the symbolic color for the global campaign to eliminate violence against women and girls - carrying a meaningful message about gender equality. The flight was carried out by Vietnam Airlines in coordination with the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women). This Vietnam Airlines flight also responded to the National Action Month for Gender Equality and Prevention and Response to Gender-Based Violence in 2024. The event combined the orange color with UN Women's "Orange the World" Campaign - solidarity in action to end gender-based violence, taking place over 16 days, from November 25 to December 10 globally.

In recent years, Vietnam Airlines has participated in many activities aimed at building an equal society.

After the flight, Vietnam Airlines continued to coordinate with UN Women and Ho Chi Minh City to present meaningful gifts such as blankets and teddy bears to women and children at the city's temporary shelter. On November 19, the airline's representative will participate in the "Ceremony to respond to the National Action Month for Gender Equality and Prevention and Response to Gender-Based Violence in 2024" in Nha Be District.

2024 marks the third consecutive year that Vietnam Airlines has launched the “Orange Bowl” flight in response to the National Action Month for Gender Equality and Prevention and Response to Gender-Based Violence. Previously, in 2022 and 2023, Vietnam Airlines’ “Orange Bowl” flight made an important contribution to creating positive impacts in promoting gender equality.

In addition to the Orange campaign, on October 1, Vietnam Airlines coordinated with UN Women to "paint pink" a flight in response to the Men for Women (HeForshe) campaign with the message "For the women around us". This is a practical activity of Vietnam Airlines to raise awareness in the community and aim for real gender equality, promoting women's development.

The “Orange” flight is an activity of Vietnam Airlines in response to the campaign launched by UN Women to call for solidarity and action to end gender-based violence.

In addition, the airline has signed a cooperation agreement for the period 2024 - 2026 with UN Women to implement communication programs to raise public awareness of gender equality as well as to build an equal and sustainable working environment, where all employees, regardless of gender, are given the opportunity to develop and contribute. Vietnam Airlines hopes that the above meaningful activities will continue the journey of creating good values, contributing to spreading the spirit of solidarity, joining hands to end violence against women, children and vulnerable groups in society, while affirming the commitment to social responsibility of Vietnam Airlines.
