VietJetAir's 1st A320 Completes First Flight

Aircraft Slated For Delivery By The End Of The Year

VietJetAir’s first A320 on order from Airbus has reached a new production milestone, with the aircraft having successfully performed its first flight in Toulouse, France. Appearing in its colourful livery, the aircraft now enters the final acceptance phase prior to delivery to VietJetAir by the end of 2014.

This A320 is the first of up to 100 of the best-selling single aisle aircraft that will be acquired by the airline under a deal finalized in February this year. The acquisition plan covers firm orders with Airbus for 63 aircraft, plus 3 0 purchase rights. In addition the airline will lease seven more aircraft from third party lessors.

The aircraft will join an existing fleet of 16 leased A320s at the fast-growing carrier and will be operated on the airline’s expanding network of domestic and regional services.
