Flag carrier Vietnam Airlines has completed its first flight powered by sustainable aviation fuel.

The flight this week was on a Vietnam Airlines Airbus A321 which was blended with SAF at Changi Airport in Singapore ahead of its return flight to Hanoi.

It was supplied by Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel.
