Vietjet completes software and hardware updates for all 69 Airbus aircraft ahead of deadline

As of 03:00 on 30 November 2025 (UTC+7), Vietjet has successfully completed required updates on all 69 Airbus A320/A321 aircraft—nearly four hours ahead of the deadline set by aviation authorities and Airbus. The timely completion underscores Vietjet’s robust technical capability, rapid response planning, and strong safety management systems.

Following notifications from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam (CAAV), all A319/A320/A321 aircraft were mandated to undergo software and/or hardware updates to ensure operational safety and reduce the risk of schedule disruptions. Vietjet promptly mobilized domestic and overseas maintenance teams and worked closely with CAAV and Airbus to carry out the updates consistently across its entire fleet.

Mr. Uong Viet Dung, Director General of the CAAV, noted that local airlines responded swiftly and responsibly as soon as Airbus issued its urgent notice and EASA released its directive. He also acknowledged the strong cooperation and mutual support demonstrated among the carriers.

Vietjet affirms that passenger safety is always its highest priority and remains committed to maintaining safe, reliable, and uninterrupted operations for all travelers.
