Vietravel Airlines Witnessed New Transition in Structure

Vietravel Airlines secures an Air Transport Business License from the Transport Ministry, signaling major structural changes and a key milestone in its growth.Vietravel Airlines Transitions to Joint-Stock Company ModelIn a significant milestone, Vietravel Airlines has officially transitioned to a joint-stock company, opening doors to greater capital mobilization and societal resource attraction. The airline has increased its charter capital from VND 700 billion to VND 1,300 billion, solidifying its financial foundation for long-term growth plans. The airline's shareholder structure has also transformed, now comprising four domestic legal entities, including Vietravel Corporation, Vietnam Travel and Marketing Transports Company (Vietravel), and two other Vietnamese individuals. Notably, all shareholders of Vietravel Airlines are Vietnamese organizations or individuals. Vietravel Corporation remains the largest shareholder, holding an 85.8% stake, followed by Vietnam Travel and Marketing Transports Company with 13.7%. This demonstrates the airline’s commitment to fostering domestic resources while adhering to state regulations on aviation investment. Strategic Shift to Fuel Long-Term Growth and Operate 50 Aircraft by 2030The transition from a limited liability company to a joint-stock model is a strategic move for Vietravel Airlines. This shift not only facilitates collaboration with both domestic and international partners but also aligns with the parent company, Vietravel Group’s transformation into Vietravel Corporation. The increase in charter capital and the diversification of shareholders provide Vietravel Airlines with the resources to execute long-term development plans. These include expanding its fleet and network of domestic and international routes, ensuring the airline remains competitive in the growing aviation market. One of the highlights of Vietravel Airlines’ development strategy is its ambitious fleet expansion plan. In its first year, the airline operated 3 aircraft. By 2025, this number is expected to grow to 25, and by 2030, the fleet will reach 50 aircraft. This strategic growth is designed to meet the increasing demand for air transportation, both domestically and internationally, particularly in tourism and charter flight services. Impressive Milestones Since Launch Since its inaugural commercial flight on January 25, 2021, Vietravel Airlines has made a strong impression in Vietnam’s aviation market. As of October 2024, the airline has successfully transported 845,102 domestic passengers and 239,000 international passengers using its current fleet of 2 Airbus A321s and 1 Airbus A320. This rapid growth has propelled Vietravel Airlines ahead of competitors such as Pacific Airlines and VASCO, cementing its position as a key player in the industry. A Vision for the Future of Vietnamese Aviation With a clear long-term vision and robust development strategy, Vietravel Airlines is poised for further success. The recent renewal of its Air Transport Business License, coupled with its restructuring and strategic planning, positions the airline as a rising star in Vietnam’s aviation landscape. The airline’s flexible operating model, strong domestic shareholder base, and rapid fleet expansion provide a solid foundation for meeting the growing demand for air travel in both domestic and international markets. Backed by the strong support of Vietravel Corporation, Vietravel Airlines is set to become one of the most prominent airlines in the coming years. With its focus on tourism and international routes, the airline is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing opportunities in the aviation sector.
