VietJetAir (VJ, Hanoi Noi Bai International) plans to pay USD250 million in the coming days to settle a legal dispute with lessor FW Aviation (Holdings) 1 Limited (FWA), part of FitzWalter Capital Aviation Services, over four leased aircraft. The Vietnamese government had reportedly urged the low-cost carrier to settle the debt after the High Court of England and Wales imposed a worldwide asset-freezing order on the airline on October 15, 2026. The settlement would avert potential disruption to fleet expansion, including A330-900N, A321-200NX, and A321-200NY(XLR) deliveries.
