“We are very honoured to receive the two prestigious awards at the same time: World’s Leading Airline – Premium Economy Class and World’s Leading Cultural Airline,” says Le Hong Ha, executive vice president, Vietnam Airlines. “This year’s awards are another great achievement and a testament to our commitment to bring the best of Vietnamese culture into the world’s most modern aircraft, including the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner and Airbus A350 XWB-900.”
This year, Vietnam Airlines was also ranked 14th among the 20 best premium class airlines in the world by Skytrax. Vietnam Airlines’ Premium Economy class is available for both Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner and Airbus A350 on routes between Vietnam and the UK, France, Germany, Australia, and Japan, offering generous legroom as well as spacious reclining seats, bringing supreme comfort. Priority on-the-ground assistance is available to Premium Economy passengers, saving them time with seat selection, check-in, baggage handling, and gate boarding. From 2018, fast track services for Premium Economy passengers, including priority security and immigration lanes, will be available at several Vietnamese as well as international airports.
Vietnam Airlines’ 4-star services are characterized by a distinctive touch of Vietnam’s enchanting traditional culture. From ‘Pho’ – a tasty traditional dish served on board to the ‘Ao dai’ worn by cabin crew and the signature Golden Lotus logo, passengers can easily recognize Vietnam’s most iconic features in the airline’s products and services, both in-flight and on-the-ground.
