Native-language A350 fleet page states 305 seats and publishes two A350 seat charts with Business rows 1-8, Premium Economy rows 10-15 and Economy through row 42 or 43.
The page does not print per-cabin numeric totals in text; the official maps and the carrier procurement extract provide those splits.

Carrier procurement document lists two A350-900 configurations in the fleet: 305 seats with 29C/45I/231Y and 305 seats with 29C/36I/240Y; its service-purchase period is planned for October 2025 through September 2028.

English-localized fleet header says “305 or 323,” while the same page’s seat-map summary says 305 and embeds the same two 305-seat maps.
Internal localization conflict: no permitted source supplies a 323-seat per-cabin split or 323-seat Vietnam Airlines map. The native-language page, two official revised maps, detailed carrier procurement extract and neutral fleet table all support the two 305-seat configurations modelled here; no 323 file is fabricated.

Vietnam Airlines' official revised Config 1 map supplies the exact row grid, cabin boundaries, doors and monuments; no cabin or row is reconstructed from generic A350 geometry. Config 1 uses 3-3-3 Premium Economy in rows 10-12 and 14-15; Economy is full 3-3-3 in rows 16-26 and 28-41, with centre-only rows 27 and 42. Business is the published staggered 1-2-1 layout (rows 1-7 plus seat 8A), and row 13 is omitted. WindowAlignment remains unknown at window positions because neither map supplies window positions and no A350 engineering window grid exists in the repository. The native Vietnamese fleet page, detailed Vietnam Airlines procurement extract and current Wikipedia fleet table support two distinct 305-seat configurations (29 Business / 45 Premium Economy / 231 Economy for this file). The English-localized header alone says “305 or 323,” but its own summary and maps still show 305; no permitted source publishes a 323-seat per-cabin split or map, so no 323 configuration is fabricated. The 14-aircraft fleet count applies across both configurations and is not assigned per config. IDs include the Premium Economy count because both official configurations have the same 305-seat total. October 6 assessment: every bookable seat independently evaluated within its own cabin against the exact numbered native map, published product, configuration-specific service and exit markings (no bassinet B marks on this native chart) and nearest contiguous labelled service bank. Standard is a reviewed baseline; cabin-wide pitch/flat-bed/IFE benefits and selection fees do not justify Good. No window positions, seat-specific recline restrictions, armrest/tray geometry or door temperature measurements are published: outboard alignment remains unknown, and no warnings or glyphs are inherited from another variant. Service cautions are qualified possibilities, not measured noise; no inferred cold-door/recline/armrest/storage penalties. Service cautions are not extended across gaps whose separation is unverified. Doors and nearby cross-aisle seats are depicted, but exact eligible exit-seat identities are not designated in this source. No bookability restriction is inferred from a centre block or a bassinet marker; carrier-assigned exit eligibility should be checked during reservation/check-in.
What changed
- Oct 6, 2026Exact native grid reverified without replacing chair identities; prior blanket Business/Premium Economy Good withdrawn in favour of individually reviewed within-cabin Standard and qualified service-bank cautions. Maximum-only Premium Economy pitch removed numerically; unsupported USB-A subtype removed while generic USB and published AC remain. Native furniture sides/door-relative banks corrected. Centre Economy warnings excluded across Door 3; no bassinet or numbered exit eligibility inferred. Outboard window alignment remains unknown.
- Jul 14, 2026Initial creation of Vietnam Airlines A350-900 Config 1 (29 Business / 45 Premium Economy / 231 Economy) from official revised seat chart and airline cabin-product pages; documented the unsupported English-localized 323-seat header conflict.
