Tilleke & Gibbins

Vietnam’s aviation industry is growing rapidly. According to an IATA forecast, between 2013 and 2017 Vietnam is expected to be the seventh-fastest-growing market for international passengers, and the fastest-growing for international freight. To meet demand, Vietnamese carriers are buying and leasing new aircraft. New private airlines have also entered the market.
