In a statement, both companies said these new aircraft will mainly be used for domestic and regional routes operated by Vietnam Airlines.

This order from Vietnam is the latest in Boeing’s growing order book over the past year, as the Trump administration used aerospace deals as leverage in trade negotiations with multiple countries.

Boeing secured 1,175 aircraft orders in 2025, more than double the total from the previous year. The company has won hundreds of aircraft orders from China, Malaysia, South Korea, India, and Gulf countries.
