PM Okays Vietnam Airlines’ Plan to Buy 10 Airbus A321-200s
The Vietnamese prime minister has just agreed with Vietnam Airlines’ plan to buy additional 10 Airbus A321-200s during the period of 2011-2014, the New Hanoi newspaper reported.
The Vietnamese flag carrier should directly negotiate the details of the contract with the producer.
The Prime Minister also permitted Vietnam Airlines to join SkyTeam, the global airline alliance, and to prepare the necessary groundwork for the accession in 2010.
Still, he requested the carrier to follow the current principles and regulations during the membership.
The prime minister also agreed in principle regarding the proposal requiring that organizations and agencies funded by the state budget should use the service of Vietnam Airlines while traveling by air at home and overseas. (New Hanoi)
