Vietnam Airlines adopts Lufthansa Systems’ Lido 4D flight planning

by | Nov 14, 2025 | Flight Ops IT, Innovation

Vietnam Airlines has adopted Lido 4D Flight Planning software for better operational safety and efficiency.

Produced by Lufthansa Systems, the tool enhances real-time situational awareness with updates from weather stations and air traffic control. Sustainability is also a focus, with Lido 4D helping airlines reducing unnecessary emissions and chart optimal flight paths. The solution is a significant step above traditional semi-automated processes, allowing pilots to make decisions more dynamically and adapt to changing circumstances more rapidly.

To Ngoc Giang, Executive Vice President at Vietnam Airlines, commented,

With the support from Lufthansa Systems, we are well-positioned to navigate the challenges and opportunities of the future, reinforcing our status as a premier airline in Asia and beyond.

Other airlines who have adopted Lido 4D include ANA, Emirates, and Malaysia Airlines. Vietnam Airlines currently holds a 4-star rating on Skytrax. Tech investment hopes to put them on equal footing with top airlines in APAC and achieve that coveted 5-star rating. More efficient planning will not only reduce their carbon emissions, but pass on benefits to customers such as smoother flights and improved on-time performance (OTP).

Lufthansa Systems, the in-house innovation team from German airline Lufthansa, supports over 350 customers. Vietnam Airlines adds Lido 4D Flight Planning to its existing suite of Lufthansa Systems solutions,, including mPilot, Lido FMS, and Lido AMDB.
