Vietnam Airlines Boeing B777 200ER V1 seat review by Dylan Gan #30027

Flew from KUL to CDG, Vietnam airlines use A321 for KUL- HAN route, B777 for HAN - CDG route.
A321 is a typical short haul flight with good meals provided, no private screen IFE, only overhead screen broadcast system.
B777 is an old aircraft with old fashion interior, a small seat back screen with NON on demand IFE, means they have time schedule to broadcast the movie.
On DME to KUL, VN use A330-200, surprisingly this is a modern aircraft with nice interior, larger seat back screen, with video on demand entertainment system.
Flight attendances were polite, food provided was good. They even served cocktail and sparkling wines. As for amenities, they only provide blanket and pillow, tooth brush was placed in bathroom with minimum quantity for grabs. No duty free shopping.
VN should refurbish their B777 aircrafts in order to compete with other 3 star airlines, as their aircraft is really outdated.
If you want to fly with VN, and expect a bit more comfortable flying experience, try to choose route using A330-200 or their newly aircraft - A350 and B787.
