Since January this year, Vietnam Airlines has increased frequency from 9 to 10 flights per week and used the Airbus A350 to replace the Boeing 787. Airbus A350-900 is considered one of the most modern planes and is expected to help Vietnam Airlines better serve passengers. According to a representative from Vietnam Airlines, about 200,000 German tourists visited Vietnam using Vietnam Airlines services in 2017, a year-on-year rise of 14%. Vietnam Airlines is the only airline to operate a direct air route with Germany at present.
