Meanwhile, cooperation with CFM International to develop LEAP engine maintenance capabilities, together with plans for an aircraft maintenance centre at Long Thành International Airport, is expected to strengthen its technical capabilities.
Human resource development also remained a focus. During the first nine months, Vietjet's Victoria Aviation Academy delivered more than 13,200 training courses to over 137,300 trainees.
Its ground handling subsidiary, AirportNEO, also expanded services at major airports, serving Vietjet and other international airlines.
