Vietjet has been honoured with two Korean awards, winning first place in the air transportation category at the "Consumer Satisfaction Brand Awards 2023" (CSBA) hosted by JoongAng Ilbo, one of the major newspapers in South Korea, and the "2023 Korea Consumer Best Brand Awards" (CBBA).
The awards aim to recognise global and domestic companies for bringing the best experiences to their Korean customers in various industries, considering the company's reliability, service experience, and company value. Vietjet is the only airline brand honoured at both awards this year.
Myung-seo Koo, business director of JoongAng Ilbo, said: “The ultimate goal of this event is to select reliable companies through the Consumer Satisfaction Brand Awards. We will establish an exemplary corporate image by comprehensively judging the safety of the brand, public trust, and excellence of service.”
The Korea Consumer Best Brand Awards’ organiser said the purpose of the award is to select companies or brands with high consumer satisfaction through not only brand competitiveness but also customer satisfaction management and sound social values.
