Vietnam Airlines receives its first 787-10 Dreamliner on 16 August 2019.
The new 787-10 (VN-A879) complements Vietnam Airlines’ existing fleet of 787-9 jets. Both 787-10 and 787-9 feature the Dreamliner’s ultra-efficient technology and passenger-pleasing comforts. However, the 787-10 is longer than the 787-9, providing the space to carry 40 more passengers and more cargo and helping it offer the lowest operating costs per seat of any twin-aisle jet in service today.
In addition to its size and fuel efficiency, the 787-10 can cover long distances. With a published range of 6,430 nautical miles (11,910 km), the 787-10 can fly more than 95 percent of the world’s twin-aisle routes.
Vietnam Airlines is outfitting its 787-10 models with 367 seats in a configuration of 24 Business Class and 343 Economy Class seats. It will reveal the routes the 787-10 will be deployed on for test and commercial flights by September 2019.
