VietJet Air, a Vietnamese low-cost airline, was founded on November 30, 2007, by Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao. The airline faced several delays due to the Great Recession and regulatory issues but eventually commenced operations on December 25, 2011. VietJet Air became the first privately owned airline in Vietnam and the second private airline to offer domestic services in the country.

The airline's first flight was from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi. Since then, VietJet Air has grown rapidly, expanding its network to include various Asian destinations such as Bangkok, Singapore, and cities in southern China. The airline is known for its affordable fares and has become a popular choice for travelers in the region.
