In the early hours of March 30, Vietjet's operations team was active at Hanoi’s Noi Bai International Airport, preparing two relief flights, VJ2875 and VJ2877. These Airbus aircraft, an A330 and an A321, were deployed to Myanmar to support rescue teams amidst a recent earthquake disaster.
As the news of a 7.7-magnitude earthquake spread, Vietjet’s crisis response teams acted swiftly. They coordinated with the Vietnamese Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of National Defense to secure flight permits and gather flight crews and necessary technical support quickly.
Behind the scenes, the operations involved thorough safety checks by engineers. Over 60 tons of medical and food supplies were loaded by ground staff, while logistics teams ensured diplomatic clearances for a seamless entry into Myanmar. The flight crews, skilled in high-stakes missions, prepared for a challenging deployment.
