This agreement reinforces the company&#8217;s strategy focused on network expansion and fleet modernization, bringing the total number of orders for the model to 280 aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Long-Term Commitment with Airbus<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The announcement comes just months after the order for 20 wide-body A330neo aircraft placed in May, further solidifying the strategic partnership between Vietjet and Airbus. With this new deal, the airline takes a decisive step in its growth plan, combining operational efficiency and sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/2025\/10\/vietjet-stops-operating-chinese-comac-c909-aircraft-after-lease-agreement-ends.html\">Vietjet Stops Operating Chinese COMAC C909 Aircraft After Lease Agreement Ends<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beno\u00eet de Saint-Exup\u00e9ry, Executive Vice President of Sales for Commercial Aircraft at Airbus, highlighted: &#8220;The proven efficiency and flexibility of the A321neo make it the ideal platform to support Vietjet&#8217;s ambitious expansion. Combined with the A330neo, this fleet will offer the best operational economy and full commonality across operations, which are distinctive features of the Airbus product family.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A321neo: Efficiency, Range, and Comfort<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The A321neo\u2014the largest version of the successful A320neo family\u2014offers greater range and exceptional performance. Thanks to its new-generation engines and Sharklets, this model achieves a 50% reduction in noise and more than 20% savings in fuel consumption and CO\u2082 emissions compared to previous-generation single-aisle aircraft, while simultaneously maximizing passenger comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of the end of September 2025, Airbus has received over 7,100 orders for the A321neo from nearly 100 customers worldwide, cementing its position as one of the most in-demand aircraft models on the market due to its combination of efficiency, sustainability, and capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2
