Flying with Vietjet, passengers will always have interesting and surprising experiences as well as enjoy high-quality services on new aircrafts with luxurious leather seats, friendly cabin crews, hot delicious dishes, and many interesting gifts.
The charming Ao Dai catwalk was led by Vietnam’s supermodel, Vo Hoang Yen, and Vietjet’s team of models alongside with the beautiful melody of “Houng Vietnam” by Phuong Nguyen and Thierry David. This collection of Ao Dai dresses was especially hand-drawn by a famous Vietnamese designer, Thuan Viet.
