Explore the KidZania airplane and aviation experience for children
KidZania Hanoi partners with Vietnam Airlines to bring an authentic aviation experience to children, highlighted by a real aircraft fuselage — a signature symbol of KidZania Hanoi. This immersive role-play activity is especially exciting for young explorers who dream of discovering the skies.
The Boeing 727 airplane made its first appearance at the 5 Floor of Lotte Mall West Lake Hanoi.
The image of a real airplane displayed at the entrance has long been an iconic symbol of KidZania worldwide. In Vietnam, the KidZania airplane is located on the 5 floor of Lotte Mall West Lake, attracting great attention from both parents and children.
On June 30, 2023, the KidZania Hanoi airplane began its nearly two-week journey from South Korea to Vietnam. Interestingly, the Boeing 727 had flown around the world for 21 years, accumulating a total of 40,635 flight hours before its retirement in 1991. After traveling thousands of kilometers, the airplane was finally transported to Hanoi and placed at the entrance to welcome guests to KidZania.
A representative from KidZania Hanoi stated: “The image of the airplane symbolizes the beginning of a wonderful journey for children to a colorful world, where they can freely explore their own universe and experience living and working just as they dream.”
KidZania and Vietnam Airlines bring the aviation experience to life for children.
In January 2024, KidZania Hanoi officially partnered with Vietnam Airlines to create an authentic aviation-themed play and learning experience for children.
Vietnam Airlines, the first Vietnamese airline to have an experience center at KidZania, sponsors aviation activities as well as the KidZania Hanoi airport counter, where children have the opportunity to learn about the fascinating aviation industry through a lively and realistic setting.
When children visit the KidZania Hanoi complex, they are welcomed at the airport terminal branded by Vietnam Airlines. Beyond the airport counter, they can also immerse themselves in realistic and educational role-playing experiences.
Children get to wear miniature uniforms during their activities. With the guidance of Zupervisors, KidZania Hanoi’s young pilots explore and become familiar with airplane operations, experiencing a real cockpit and modern flight simulation equipment. The exterior colors and design are meticulously detailed, reflecting the distinctive branding of Vietnam Airlines.
Since its official opening, the Aviation Academy has consistently been one of the most popular and well-loved experience centers for children visiting KidZania.
