In the time under review, Vietjet’s consolidated revenue reached 4.522 trillion VND (about 197 million USD) while the after-tax profit was 244 billion VND, up 12 percent and 98 percent from a year earlier, respectively.
Vietnam’s aviation and tourism sectors have fully reopened since late last year to meet the rising travel demand. In the first three months of 2022, Vietjet resumed its entire domestic network as well as regular international services. It operated a total of 20,000 flights with more than 3 million passengers onboard across 60 domestic and international routes.

Rising costs from deferred income taxes resulted in a lower consolidated after-tax profit than in the 2021 compiled statements.
As of December 31, 2021, Vietjet’s total assets approximated 51.654 trillion VND. Its debt-to-equity ratio stayed at 0.9 while the liquidity ratio was at 1.6, which were considered good indicators in the aviation industry.
Last year, the airline operated nearly 42,000 flights across its network with more than 5.4 million passengers onboard and over 66,000 tonnes of cargo./.
