PM asks Vietnam Airlines to develop modern, green and safe aviation industry

Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has instructed the national flag carrier Vietnam Airlines to take the lead in developing the modern, green and safe aviation industry.

He made the instruction while addressing a ceremony held in Hanoi on June 1 to celebrate the airlines’ 30th founding anniversary.

The airline should apply modern management models, fully embrace the digital transformation and enhance customer service and experience while reducing operational costs to remain globally competitive, the PM said.

Over three decades of operation, the airline has served 350 million passengers, transported 4.7 million tons of cargo, and operated nearly 100 routes to 53 domestic and international destinations.

The airline’s revenue has continued to grow. In 2024, it achieved a consolidated revenue of over VND113 trillion ($4.32 billion).
