On the occasion of International Women’s Day (March 8), Bamboo Airways organized a special activity to send meaningful gifts and the message “You are ‘Bootiful’ – You are our beautiful muse with Bamboo” to female passengers who have always shown their love and trust for the green wings of Bamboo Airways.

Flight QH208 from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi became even more exciting than usual on this special day dedicated to the gentle half of the world. The Bamboo Airways flight crew personally presented lovely gifts and greeting cards to female passengers as a heartfelt gesture of appreciation. Each carefully prepared card and gift was delivered with sincerity, bringing smiles of happiness to all the women on this special flight.

Ms. Bich Ngoc (Son Tay), a female passenger on the flight, expressed her excitement and emotion upon receiving the surprise gift from the QH208 crew members. “The way a gift is given is sometimes even more meaningful than the gift itself. Being gently presented with gifts and warm wishes by the Bamboo Airways crew up in the sky was truly touching. Thank you, Bamboo Airways, for being so thoughtful and caring toward your passengers!”

Alongside spreading joy in the skies, Bamboo Airways also organized gift-giving activities for female passengers at both ends of the journey in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, at Tan Son Nhat International Airport and Noi Bai International Airport. The event aimed to celebrate women while expressing heartfelt gratitude to passengers who continue to trust and choose Bamboo Airways.

At Terminal T3 of Tan Son Nhat Airport (Ho Chi Minh City), Bamboo Airways ground representatives personally delivered sweet gifts along with warm wishes to female passengers at the check-in area and boarding gates. The bright smiles and excitement from passengers created memorable moments right before departure.

From Hanoi, at the First Lounge by Bamboo Airways Business Lounge, female passengers were also warmly welcomed by Bamboo Airways staff with meaningful gifts.

“On the occasion of International Women’s Day (March 8), Bamboo Airways would like to send our best wishes to the beautiful half of the world. We hope that every journey with Bamboo Airways is not only a flight, but also a memorable moment where our passengers feel care, appreciation, and complete joy. Thank you for your trust and support, and we look forward to continuing to serve you on our green flights,” a Bamboo Airways representative shared.

Throughout its seven years of operation, Bamboo Airways has always focused on preserving and promoting a culture of dedicated and hospitable service at every touchpoint. In the sky are the flight attendants, and on the ground are the airline’s representatives from the Ground Services department. The seamless coordination between departments helps deliver friendly, professional, and memorable service experiences for passengers on every journey.

Along with this, as a gesture of appreciation to women, Bamboo Airways is launching attractive promotional fares starting from only VND 83,000 and VND 183,000 base fare per passenger per segment, applicable across the airline’s entire domestic network. In addition, passengers can enjoy discounts of up to 16% on base fares per passenger per segment for flights between Hanoi/Ho Chi Minh City – Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City – Quy Nhon.

For other domestic routes, Bamboo Airways offers an 8% discount on the base fare per passenger per segment. The promotion is valid from now until March 10, 2026, and applies to all official ticket distribution channels of the airline.

Recently, FLC and Bamboo Airways held a working session with Eastbridge Partners, an investment fund led by its Chairman Kevin Lim, to discuss and explore potential investment cooperation opportunities in the coming period.
Representing FLC at the meeting were Mr. Trinh Van Quyet – Founder of the Group, Ms. Huong Tran Kieu Dung – Permanent Vice Chairwoman of the Board of Directors, along with representatives of the Group’s leadership and Bamboo Airways.

The meeting took place as the company is accelerating its restructuring process and expanding connections with international financial partners in order to strengthen resources, enhance competitiveness, and create a foundation for a new growth phase.
 

Vietnam continues to attract international capital
Entering 2026, Vietnam continues to be considered one of the most dynamic growth markets in Asia. According to a report by the General Statistics Office under the Ministry of Finance, disbursed FDI in January 2026 reached USD 1.68 billion, the highest level in the past five years and an increase of 11.3% compared to the same period in 2025. This figure reflects international investors’ confidence in the long-term prospects of Vietnam’s economy.
At the meeting, Kevin Lim said that Eastbridge Partners is actively seeking investment opportunities in Southeast Asia, with Vietnam identified as a key market thanks to its increasingly favorable investment environment. According to him, compared with other countries in the region, Vietnam still has significant development potential, particularly in the aviation sector.
“Vietnam has a large population and a rapidly growing economy, yet the number of airlines operating in the market remains relatively limited, indicating substantial growth potential. This is one of the sectors we are interested in and wish to explore further through partners with a solid foundation and clear development strategy such as FLC,” Kevin Lim shared.

Founded in 2011 in Seoul, Eastbridge Partners currently manages approximately USD 1.5 billion in assets and focuses on investing in high-growth companies across Asia. The fund has representative offices in Singapore and Ho Chi Minh City and maintains a broad partner network, including major investors and institutions in Korea, Singapore, and the Middle East. Previously, Eastbridge invested in the digital entertainment platform POPS Worldwide and the medical equipment company USM Healthcare, demonstrating its long-term interest in the Vietnamese market.

Connecting international resources, expanding aviation opportunities
At the meeting, Ms. Huong Tran Kieu Dung introduced an overview of FLC’s multi-sector ecosystem, in which aviation plays an important role in connecting and enhancing value for the Group’s tourism – resort – service chain. According to her, in recent years Bamboo Airways has effectively connected domestic and international destinations, particularly the Korean market.
Previously, Bamboo Airways operated direct routes from Hanoi and Da Nang to Incheon International Airport (Korea), while also maintaining charter flights serving Korean travelers, contributing to tourism and trade connectivity between the two markets.
“Korea is one of our key markets. FLC and Bamboo Airways have had considerable experience cooperating with Korean businesses and organizations in recent years. We highly value the development experience of Korea’s aviation industry and hope to learn from it while expanding cooperation with Korean partners and investors in the near future,” Ms. Dung said.
For Eastbridge Partners, Kevin Lim stated that the fund is ready to consider strategic investment opportunities and accompany the company in its long-term development. The fund may also connect FLC and Bamboo Airways with international partners, including financial institutions and aircraft leasing and purchasing companies, to support fleet expansion in the future.

After the restructuring process, Bamboo Airways currently maintains a fleet of eight aircraft and is implementing plans for expansion in the coming period. The target for 2026 is to increase the fleet to 20 aircraft, with the long-term goal of restoring operations to 30 aircraft and expanding the network to four continents.
The meeting between FLC and Eastbridge Partners is seen as a positive step in strengthening connections between Vietnamese enterprises and international investors. As global capital continues to seek stable growth markets such as Vietnam, proactively expanding cooperation with reputable investment funds is expected to help businesses enhance financial capacity, accelerate project implementation, and create a foundation for sustainable long-term development.

On the afternoon of February 16, 2026, the staff of Bamboo Airways working at Noi Bai International Airport had the honor of welcoming Minister of Construction Tran Hong Minh, Deputy Minister Le Anh Tuan, and Director General of the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam Uong Viet Dung for a Lunar New Year visit and encouragement during the peak operational period at the end of the Year of the Snake.

During the Lunar New Year of the Horse – the busiest period for the aviation industry – the visit demonstrated the timely attention and recognition from state authorities for Bamboo Airways’ efforts in ensuring operational safety, maintaining stable operations, and providing seamless passenger services.

Encouraged by the leaders of the Ministry and the Authority, Bamboo Airways reaffirmed its strong commitment to delivering the highest level of service during the Tet peak season: prioritizing absolute safety, strengthening operational discipline, proactively preparing contingency plans, optimizing resources, and enhancing service quality at every customer touchpoint.

With a professional and dedicated team known for its hospitality, Bamboo Airways looks ahead to the Year of the Horse with positive growth plans, continuing to contribute meaningfully to the sustainable development of Vietnam’s aviation industry in this new era of advancement.
