VietJet Air, a prominent low-cost airline based in Vietnam, is gearing up for the bustling Lunar New Year travel season by expanding its fleet. To enhance its capacity, the airline recently welcomed two new state-of-the-art Airbus A321neo Airbus Cabin Flex ACF aircraft at the end of December 2024. Additionally, on January 8, 2024, VietJet Air further bolstered its fleet by introducing four additional A320-200 aircraft in preparation for the spike in passenger demand during the Lunar New Year.

In an announcement shared on social media, VietJet highlighted that the newly acquired aircraft were swiftly deployed to operate on both domestic and international routes. These flights will primarily cater to travelers commuting between Vietnam's northern and southern regions, offering enhanced convenience and connectivity during this festive period.

The four newly added A320-200 aircraft have been secured through a wet lease arrangement with Freebird Airlines, a renowned aviation company established in 2000. Operating under the Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance (ACMI) model, Freebird Airlines is a subsidiary of Gözen Holding, a prominent organization with a solid foothold in the aviation industry and a wealth of experience spanning over 40 years.

Notably, the Lunar New Year, known as Tet in Vietnam, holds significant cultural importance as the country's most cherished holiday. As the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam reports a remarkable booking rate of 90% to 100% for domestic flights during this period, VietJet Air's proactive measures to scale up its operations reflect its commitment to ensuring seamless travel experiences for passengers embarking on this joyous occasion.

Prepare for an enriching and hassle-free Lunar New Year journey with VietJet Air as they soar to new heights in providing exceptional service and connectivity for travelers celebrating Tet in Vietnam.
