This milestone positions SPA as one of the few young Vietnamese airlines with a closed-loop operational ecosystem, encompassing Air Operator Certificate (AOC), Approved Training Organization (ATO), and Approved Maintenance Organization (AMO).
Technical Autonomy: The Foundation for Sustainable Growth
The approval to train for basic technical licenses B1 (mechanical, engine) and B2 (electrical, avionics systems) is a key enabler for SPA to gradually build a high-caliber engineering team. With this new training capability, SPA can recruit fresh talent and train them to become certified technicians at A/B1 and B2 levels. Instead of relying on foreign experts or external partners, the airline can now fully self-sustain its core workforce for the A320/A321 fleet. This rare achievement for a young airline reflects a robust investment strategy in human capital.

Commenting on this milestone, Mr. Phạm Đăng Thanh, Deputy General Director in charge of Technical Maintenance at SPA, emphasized: “Amidst the aviation industry’s shortage of high-quality technical personnel, in-house training empowers SPA to proactively build a solid foundation for realizing our fleet expansion and transcontinental network growth ambitions.”
In a short time, Sun PhuQuoc Airways has completed its legal framework in line with international aviation standards. The synergy between ATO and AMO creates an “on-site training – hands-on practice” model using the airline’s own fleet. This approach not only optimizes operational efficiency and enhances safety standards but also strategically positions SPA to upskill for wide-body aircraft in the next phase. Broader still, this internal capability-building elevates Vietnam’s aviation competitiveness in the regional value chain.
Launching “TECH-GEN 2026”: A Launchpad for Future Engineers
To operationalize its newly approved training capabilities, SPA has officially launched the TECH-GEN 2026 program. The initiative aims to recruit 200-300 engineers by 2026, scaling up in subsequent years. This next-gen aviation engineer training model seamlessly integrates advanced theory with practical application for engineering students.

The program offers two specialized tracks: CRS A for vocational/college graduates aiming to become professional aircraft maintenance technicians, and CRS B for university graduates targeting B1/B2 senior engineer certification. Participants receive comprehensive training for international certifications, along with attractive benefits and guaranteed core positions at SPA upon graduation. TECH-GEN 2026 directly addresses the high-skilled talent shortage, ensuring SPA’s resource autonomy for expansion.

As part of Sun Group, Sun PhuQuoc Airways aims to integrate premium flight experiences with high-end tourism, hospitality, and entertainment services in Phu Quoc and key domestic/international destinations. The B1/B2 training approval and TECH-GEN 2026 initiative are strategic moves demonstrating SPA’s robust management and long-term vision. Through substantial investment in infrastructure and people, Sun PhuQuoc Airways is establishing a self-reliant, modern operational model that redefines Vietnam’s aviation standing globally.
