Implemented since 2022, "Dream Trip" has become an annual activity of Vietnam Airlines and partners. Through 4 seasons of organization, the program has brought more than 400 children with special circumstances from all over the country to participate in experiential journeys in Nha Trang, Vung Tau and Da Nang. Entering its 5th year, the program has chosen the Hanoi - Hai Phong trip with many activities combining education, experience and skill development.
On the first day, the children visited the Mausoleum of President Ho Chi Minh, learned about his life and the good values that Uncle Ho left for generations of Vietnamese children. The activity contributed to fostering love for the homeland and country, while also arousing the spirit of overcoming difficulties, learning and training awareness in each child.
After that, students experience reality at the aircraft maintenance facility of VAECO, a member unit of Vietnam Airlines. Through visiting and interacting with engineers and technicians, students have the opportunity to learn about the jobs behind each safe flight, and at the same time access the actual professional environment in the aviation industry. This is also an opportunity for students to broaden their understanding, nurture dreams and shape choices for the future.
In addition to experiential activities, the children also participated in cultural and artistic exchanges with artists of SpaceSpeakers Group and attended the Gala Dinner at Meliá Vinpearl Hotel Hai Phong Rivera. On the occasion of accompanying the 5th year of the program, SpaceSpeakers Group dedicated a separate theme song to "Dream Trip". With the message "Give love from the heart, let me see love", the song sends the spirit of sharing and companionship that the program has pursued throughout the past 5 years. Artists APJ, Kriss Ngo, Monotape and LEZII directly guide the children in vocal training, composing, dance practice and performance.
On the following day, the program continued with teambuilding activities, thinking games and content guiding drowning prevention skills at. Closing the journey, the children were awarded certificates of participation in the program "Touching Dreams of Flying".
Mr. Dang Anh Tuan, Deputy General Director of Vietnam Airlines, said: "We hope that each experience in the program will help children have more confidence in themselves and boldly pursue their dreams. With the National Airlines, in addition to the mission of connecting people and regions through flights, we also want to connect hearts, resources and responsibilities of the community, businesses and social organizations to create better values for children and the community. That is also part of the sustainable development commitment that Vietnam Airlines persistently pursues.
Co-organizing the program for the 4th consecutive year, Mr. Ignacio Martin, CEO of Meliá Hotels International Hotel Management Group Asia-Pacific region, shared: "We believe that sustainable development is the responsibility to accompany the community and nurture good values for future generations. Through'Dream Trip 2026', Meliá Hotels International is proud to spread love, bringing meaningful experiences and faith in a brighter future to children.
Dream Trip 2026" is one of the community activities within Vietnam Airlines' sustainable development orientation. Previously, on April 22, the National Airlines announced the "Green Alliance - Sustainable Development", affirming its commitment to promote Environment - Society - Governance (ESG) standards in Vietnam through the companionship of partners and community initiatives.
Through the joint efforts of organizations, businesses and partners, the program aims to create more learning, experiential and development opportunities for children in special circumstances. This is also Vietnam Airlines' way of spreading positive values to the community, in addition to its mission of connecting with safe and convenient flights.
