VietJetAir is set to become the first airline in Vietnam to operate the Airbus A320 with sharklets.
The carrier has agreed to lease three new A320s from AWAS.
Sharklets offer operators the flexibility of either adding a range of 100 nautical miles or an increased payload capability of up to 450 kilograms. These new Sharklet-equipped A320 aircraft will assist VietJetAir with their plans to expand into ASEAN and northern Asia to regional destinations such as Kuala Lumpur, Busan, Seoul, Singapore and Taipei.
