The flight promotes gender equality.

On November 1st, Vietnam Airlines flight VN310, traveling from Hanoi to Tokyo, took off with the message "Gender equality for the women around us."

Passengers check in at the counter for HeforShe flights.

This activity is part of the global HeForShe movement launched by the United Nations agency for gender equality and the empowerment of women (UN Women), which calls for the participation of men and the community in promoting gender equality.

The event was organized by Vietnam Airlines in collaboration with UN Women, the Ministry of Interior , and the Vietnam Women Entrepreneurs Council.

At Noi Bai Airport, the check-in area displayed banners, standees, and photo booths with the message "Gender Equality - For the Women Around Us." Passengers on the flight were given pink HeForShe t-shirts. Communication videos about gender equality and women's safety in the digital age were shown in the waiting area.

Onboard, the captain delivered a special greeting to passengers, sharing the significance of the flight and a call to action for gender equality. Passengers were served a HeForShe-inspired meal and received a short informational booklet on gender equality and safety in the digital space.

Upon landing in Tokyo, Vietnam Airlines representatives in Japan welcomed passengers with a banner reading, "Warm welcome to passengers on the HeForShe flight - Gender equality for the women around us," concluding the journey with a message of connection and humanity.

Previously, Vietnam Airlines and UN Women collaborated on the "Orange Flight" campaign in response to the 16 Days of Action to End Gender-Based Violence, contributing to raising awareness and promoting substantive gender equality in the community.
