Restructuring and rebranding

In April, 2016, Vietnam Airlines announced the establishment of the new VNĐ300 billion airline in the previous month, based on the restructuring of its subsidiary, VASCO, to a new brand: SkyViet. However, in 2017, the plan was ultimately cancelled due to the requests from the stakeholders.
