On Saturday (December 25, 2021), Vietjet announced the delivery of their first Airbus A330-300. The aircraft, registration VN-A811, features a soft iridescent golden strip livery, symbolizing the cultural quintessence of Vietnam and Asia generally. The livery takes the shape of mountains and rivers alongside the countries and conveys the pride of the region’s legendary cultures. It also expresses the connection between the traditional and modern between East and West cultures. The new Airbus A330-300 arrived at Ton Son Nhat International Airport just north of Ho Chin Minh City on Christmas morning, where it was greeted with jubilant activities.


In Saturday’s delivery announcement, Vietjet’s 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.”


The aircraft has been configured with comfortable and specious leather seats including 12 in Business Class and 365 Economy Class seats. With a range of up to 11,750km (6,344 nm), the aircraft can cover from medium-haul to truly long-range routes. Vietjet’s new A330-300 is powered by Rolls-Royce Trent 700 engines, and the carrier has selected the manufacturer’s Total Care maintenance suite, the flagship integrated technical services option.
