VN Airline Code: Vietnam Airlines IATA & ICAO
Vietnam Airlines is stored in this dataset as IATA code VN and ICAO code HVN, based in Vietnam. GDS segment lines print the IATA code before the flight number. Live routes, fares and baggage policies are not in this dataset.
Overview
VN is the IATA airline designator stored for Vietnam Airlines. ICAO is HVN. Country of record: Vietnam. On a cryptic GDS line the IATA code sits immediately before the flight number, for example VN 456. Agents should not confuse VN (two characters, sometimes a digit such as 6E) with HVN (three letters). This code page does not list routes, alliances, baggage rules, or fleet. Those facts are not in the dataset. Other Vietnam carriers stored here: VJ (VietJet Air). To decode a full itinerary that markets VN, paste the PNR into the parser.
How to use this page
- Find VN at the start of the flight line in the PNR.
- Paste the full itinerary into the PNR parser (or the GDS-specific parser if you know the host).
- Confirm the carrier name resolves to Vietnam Airlines.
- Do not add baggage or meal claims that the PNR did not print.
Example
Example segment: 2 VN 456 H 26OCT 5 WLGAKL HK1 1945 2050 The parser should set marketing carrier VN (Vietnam Airlines) and flight 456. Class H is a fare bucket, not proof of cabin without the booking-class tool.
