The national carrier was ranked 22nd on the list which was led by Air New Zealand and Qantas. The ranking is based on several criteria, including serious incidents over the past two years, fleet age, fleet size, rate of incidents, fatalities, profitability, and pilot skill and training.
Airline Ratings CEO Sharon Petersen said, “Vietnam Airlines have not had a fatal accident in 27 years nor have they had any serious incidents. The airline operates a fleet of 100 modern aircraft with an average age under 10 years and the company has passed its IOSA (IATA Operational Safety Audit) certification without fail since 2006."
"In addition to this, the country of Vietnam has also made huge strides in aviation safety with better airports, navigation system upgrades and far more stringent protocols. All of this combined secures them a spot in our top 25,” Petersen added.
