Officials from Vietjet and Pratt & Whitney sign an agreement for Geared Turbofan engines to power the Vietnamese carrier's A321 aircraft.

Vietjet has confirmed the selection of Pratt & Whitney’s Geared Turbofan (GTF) engines to power 44 A320neo airliners, which it will start adding to its fleet from July 2026. The agreement signed on Wednesday at the Singapore Airshow also covers a 12-year EngineWise comprehensive maintenance plan.

The 24 A321neos and 20 A321XLRs are part of a 100-ship firm order that Vietjet placed with Airbus in October 2025. This brought the total order commitment for the A321 to 280 aircraft and followed a May 2025 deal covering 20 of the larger A330neos.
