Vietnam Airlines was officially certified as a 4-star airline by Skytrax, the world’s leading airport and airline rating organization.
The certification was presented to Duong Tri Tranh, President of Vietnam Airlines at Farnborough Airshow, London on July 12.
Edward Plaisted, CEO of Skytrax said: “This 4-Star Airline rating is an excellent achievement for Vietnam Airlines and the result of their hard work across a range of product and service areas. Introducing two brand new aircraft types into the fleet in such a short space of time is a difficult task, but the reward for Vietnam Airlines is a fabulous new product in their core long haul market. We acknowledge the considerable change and improvement they have achieved, with a new service concept rolled out in Business Class and an overhaul of cabin staff training procedures – all which will further strengthen Vietnam Airlines position as a 4-Star Airline.”
Duong Tri Tranh showed his honor to accept the prestigious certification on behalf of Vietnam Airlines. He dedicated this accolade to all Vietnam Airlines employees and the airline’s efforts to become one of the best airlines in Asia-Pacific.
The 4-star recognition was mostly attributed to the move of Vietnam Airlines to the newly open terminal in Ha Noi, and a new Business Class lounge opening in HCM City this September.
