Vietnam’s Bikini Airlines Set To Create Country’s First Female Billionaire.

Meet Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao, a mega-successful Vietnamese entrepreneur who is set to become one of the world’s richest people, thanks to her brilliant idea of staffing an airline with bikini-clad babes. Thao, who made her first million at 21 trading fax machines and latex rubber, started really raking it in when she replaced VietJet Air’s flight attendants with ai wearing ridiculously sexy outfits.

The company, Vietnam’s only privately-owned airline, is about to go public boosting the 45-year-old Thao’s fortune to $1.37 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.

In just a few years the titillating transporter, whose new motto is “Enjoy Flying!”, has gobbled up over 30 per cent of the airline market share in Vietnam.

In a further masterstroke, Thao’s has boosted profits by publishing eye-popping calendars starring the sexy stewardesses, which also act as a marketing tool for the airline, which mostly flies to resort destinations within Vietnam and its surrounding environs. Thao dismisses any criticism of her bikini-fueled business as old-fashioned and irrelevant.

“You have the right to wear anything you like, either the bikini or the traditional ao dai,” she has said, referring to the traditional Vietnamese loose tunics worn over pants.

Boeing Resumes 737 MAX Manufacturing After Seven-Week Strike

In a crucial move for its recovery, Boeing has restarted production of its best-selling 737 MAX jetliner, about a month after a significant seven-week strike involving 33,000 factory workers came to an end.

This marks a key milestone for the planemaker, which has been facing considerable challenges in recent years, including heavy debt and a series of setbacks.

According to the report from Reuters, Boeing resumed the production of the 737 MAX jetliner last week, a pivotal step as the company aims to meet the growing global demand for air travel. With over 4,200 orders from airlines, Boeing’s ability to get the 737 MAX production line back in motion is vital for its financial recovery.

Although Boeing had previously planned to restart production earlier, the company faced numerous obstacles that delayed this process. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) head Mike Whitaker told Reuters on Thursday that while Boeing had not yet resumed production, they had plans to restart by the end of the month.

The road to this point has been rocky for Boeing. Setbacks such as the tragic fatal crashes of the 737 MAX, the COVID-19 pandemic, ongoing supply chain issues, production safety concerns, and increased regulatory scrutiny have all contributed to delays in the company’s efforts to ramp up production.

The seven-week strike, which involved thousands of Boeing’s factory workers, added yet another hurdle. Despite these challenges, production of the 737 MAX officially resumed on Friday, according to one of the anonymous sources.

Boeing, however, declined to comment on the matter. The planemaker is now focused on reaching its goal of producing 56 737 MAX airplanes per month, a target that has been delayed due to the many issues that have beset the company over the past few years.
