The Airbus A320neo is expected to serve domestic
routes such as Hanoi – Dalat, Hanoi – Phu Quoc, Ho Chi Minh
(Saigon) – Thanh Hoa, and Ho Chi Minh (Saigon) – Chu Lai.

The carrier is also expected to receive wide-body
Boeing 787-10s in the near future. The 787-10 is the largest
member of the Dreamliner family and the largest passenger aircraft
in Vietnam Airlines’ current fleet.
