Vietnam Airlines being selected as the host of the conference affirms Vietnam’s capability in the maintenance field and represents an opportunity for Vietnam to gradually realize its plan to become a passenger and cargo hub, a center for MRO, both regionally and globally.
VAECO currently provides maintenance, repair, and overhaul services for the entire fleet of Vietnam Airlines and over 80 other civil airlines worldwide.
Currently, Vietnam Airlines is the only Vietnamese airline with aircraft repair and maintenance facilities.
