1. Attentive Staff
One thing you'll immediately notice when flying with Bamboo Airways is the warm smiles everywhere. This starts right at the check-in counter, where most airlines rely on outsourced ground services, but Bamboo Airways stands out in a big way. The friendly smiles from the staff, combined with excellent customer service, leave a lasting impression on passengers.
The pleasant atmosphere is also reflected in the airline's uniform design, which features three main colors inspired by Bamboo Airways' brand: green and two shades of blue. 'This is probably the most stylish uniform ever seen in Vietnam's aviation industry,' one passenger commented.

2. Strict Baggage Policies
Unlike budget carriers like Vietjet or Jetstar, where passengers are limited to 7kg of carry-on luggage and must pay extra for checked baggage, Bamboo Airways follows a more generous policy. Except for ultra-low-cost promotional fares, Bamboo Airways offers a free 20kg checked baggage allowance with every ticket. So when you book a flight with Bamboo Airways, you'll enjoy the advantage of extra luggage allowance.

5. Bamboo Airways Leads in On-Time Performance

6. Hybrid Aviation Model
Traditional airlines offer full amenities, but they come with a high price tag. On the other hand, low-cost carriers provide significantly cheaper fares, but passengers often face reductions in services such as meals, entertainment, and free luggage allowances in order to keep costs down.
The Hybrid model is a blend of traditional and low-cost aviation. With Hybrid airlines, passengers enjoy the full range of services typical of traditional airlines but at competitive prices similar to those of low-cost carriers. While several airlines in Vietnam are moving towards a Hybrid model, Bamboo Airways is the first to boldly position itself as a true Hybrid airline.
