CAPA names Vietjet “Asia Pacific Low Cost Airline of the Year 2019”

New-age carrier Vietjet has been awarded the title of “Asia Pacific Low Cost Airline of the Year” by Centre for Asia Pacific Aviation (CAPA). 

The award ceremony took place during the CAPA Asia Aviation Summit, which is being held from November 14 -15, 2019 in Singapore.

Surpassing all of its peers in the Asia Pacific region, the CAPA awards aims to annually acknowledge the airline that has been the biggest standout strategically, established itself as a leader, and has been the biggest innovator, providing a benchmark for others to follow during the year in the regional aviation industry.

Besides ticking all the above boxes, Vietjet has also stood out for its continuous, dynamic expansion. The airline is now Vietnam’s leading domestic carrier and has strongly expanded its international network. This prestigious recognition is significant given Vietnam’s favorable economic prospects and fast-growing market.
“Vietjet continues to break the mould for a traditional low cost airline,” said CAPA Chairman Emeritus – Peter Harbison. 

Vietjet President and CEO Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao said, “Vietjet’s mission is to make breakthrough changes in the aviation industry’s services. We are filled with happiness to have brought flying opportunities with cost-saving fares and friendly services on new and well-furbished aircraft to nearly 100 million passengers while creating positive values to the aviation industry’s community and partners.”
