Vietnam Airlines secured the third place in the list of the region's 10 most punctual carriers, after South Korea's Jeju Air and Japan's Peach Aviation, achieving an on-time arrival rate of 87.77%.

This marks the airline's highest-ever ranking since Cirium began publishing performance assessments of airlines worldwide.

Vietnam Airlines was the highest-ranked full-service carrier in the Asia-Pacific region, outperforming several major international airlines, including Singapore Airlines, Hainan Airlines and Korean Air.

It was the only Vietnamese representative included in this year's rankings, underscoring its stable operational performance amid rising demand for air travel across both domestic and international markets.
