No surprise here, with strong historical and business tie with EU, Airbus is winner in Vietnam. Vietnam Airlines is replacing their A330 progressively with B787 and B777 with A350XWB. Their short haul are A321 and ATR heavy. Overall Vietnam is a traditional Airbus territory.

 

In summary, Airbus signed 40 new aircraft order during President Hollande's official visit to Vietnam.

  • Vietnam Airlines- 10 A350 XWBs
  • Vietjetair- 10 A321ceo and 10 A321neo
  • Jetstar Pacific Airlines- 10 A320ceo

Vietnam is a new emerging economy to be reckon with, just like Myammar. They used to export labor overseas, but now , they are recruiting their locals like mad.
