“A Greener Sky, A Kinder Earth” – Vietnam Airlines’ Sustainable Commitment in 2024
1. “For a Green and Sustainable Vietnam” – Reforesting the Northwest
Launched on World Environment Day, June 5, 2024, the “One Leaf, One Tree” initiative under the “For a Green and Sustainable Vietnam” campaign quickly gained public traction:
50 hectares of forest in Northwest Vietnam were restored
Over 60,000 contributors engaged in 75,000 donation transactions within just 5 months
Inspired the song and project “Nurturing Green” by Cuon Hood Entertainment
Honored with the “Sustainable Idea” award at the Human Act Prize 2025
2. Green Growth in Action
Vietnam Airlines took a leap forward with the “Sustainable Route to Con Dao”, becoming the first Vietnamese airline to use Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) — a key milestone in reducing carbon emissions.
In addition, CSR campaigns were boosted through digital platforms. Ticket purchases through MoMo wallet (with built-in donation features) increased 40% year-on-year, exceeding expectations.
An aircraft taking off with sustainable fuel — Vietnam Airlines takes bold steps towards a cleaner aviation future.
3. Flying Toward Gender Equality
Environmental action was matched with a strong push for gender equality:
In collaboration with UN Women, Vietnam Airlines launched two Orange Flights and one Pink Flight, promoting the HeForShe campaign and Ring the Bell for Gender Equality
These flights carried more than passengers — they carried purpose and social transformation
Conclusion:
Vietnam Airlines is transforming sustainability from a concept into a core identity — by turning flights into forests, passengers into changemakers, and the sky into a stage for inclusion. In 2024, the airline didn’t just fly further, it flew wiser, greener, and more humanely.
