Vietravel Airlines Soars with New Airbus A320, Gearing Up for Air Cargo Expansion
On August 4th, at Noi Bai International Airport, Vietravel Airlines proudly welcomed its latest acquisition, an Airbus A320 aircraft now owned by the airline. This marks the second Airbus in the airline's fleet since the strategic involvement of T&T Group as a new shareholder.
Expanding Horizons Beyond Passenger Transport
In addition to its core passenger transport services, Vietravel Airlines is charting an ambitious course to venture into the Air Cargo sector. This strategic move is complemented by plans to develop a comprehensive suite of aviation ancillary services, including ground handling, warehousing, cargo loading, technical support, and aviation industry services.
Introducing the VN-A136
The newly acquired Airbus A320, bearing the registration VN-A136 and configured with 182 seats, is set to enter service this August. It will commence operations immediately after the completion of its necessary technical maintenance.
A Shift Towards Fleet Ownership
This exciting development follows the airline's reception of its first owned Airbus A321 in late June 2025. This milestone signaled a new chapter in Vietravel Airlines' strategy, transitioning from a leased fleet to one of direct ownership, a significant step forward supported by the partnership with the strategic shareholder, T&T Group.
The Versatile Airbus A320/A321 Fleet
The Airbus A321 and A320 series are highly regarded narrow-body aircraft widely utilized across the Asia-Pacific region. Renowned for their impressive operational efficiency and fuel economy, these aircraft are perfectly suited for a range of routes, from major domestic trunk lines to short and medium-haul international journeys. This fleet investment underscores Vietravel Airlines' commitment to enhancing its operational capabilities and market reach.
