In order to meet the increased travel demand during the Lunar New Year, this December, Vietnam Airlines received three new aircraft, including one Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner and two Airbus A320neo. The three new aircraft will provide more than 100,000 seats during the peak period of the Lunar New Year. Accordingly, Vietnam Airlines received one A320neo with registration number VN-A515 on December 7 and one Boeing 787-10 with registration number VN-A877 on December 8. It is expected that by the end of December, the airline will continue to receive another Airbus A320neo with registration number VN-A514. The three new aircraft will help increase the total number of aircraft of the airline to 103 this year. Of which, the wide-body aircraft fleet alone (Boeing 787-9, Boeing 787-10 and Airbus A350) is 31 aircraft.
The Boeing 787-10 is one of the largest aircraft in the Boeing 787 family. With a modern design and fuel-efficient engines, the Boeing 787-10 not only provides a comfortable and convenient flight experience for passengers but also reduces operating costs and environmental impact. Vietnam Airlines is currently the only Vietnamese airline operating this wide-body aircraft.
Vietnam Airlines' Airbus A320neo aircraft are equipped with new-generation engines, which help save more than 16% of fuel consumption, reduce 75% of noise and reduce about 50% of toxic emissions compared to previous generation engines. The newly received Boeing 787-10 will be operated mainly on domestic and Northeast Asia routes. Meanwhile, the Airbus A320neo aircraft will only serve on domestic routes. The addition of aircraft at the end of the year not only helps Vietnam Airlines promptly meet people's travel needs, but also affirms its commitment to improving service quality, bringing a comfortable and modern experience to passengers.

Previously, Vietnam Airlines opened early sales of 2.15 million seats, equivalent to more than 11,000 flights on the entire domestic flight network to serve passengers' demand for Tet tickets. The increased flights focus on routes serving the needs of family reunions and spring travel during Tet such as between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, Nha Trang, Da Nang, Phu Quoc, Vinh; between Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang, Hai Phong, Hue, Thanh Hoa, Quy Nhon, Pleiku, Chu Lai, Dong Hoi, Vinh, etc. For convenient travel, Vietnam Airlines encourages passengers to proactively plan, book and buy tickets early. At the same time, to avoid buying fake tickets or tickets with inflated prices during the Tet peak season, the airline recommends that customers buy tickets on the website, mobile application, ticket offices, official agents and request an invoice when buying tickets.
