National flag carrier Vietnam Airlines used a "super aircraft" Boeing 787-10
Dreamliner to carry the Vietnamese athletes.
Among the athletes on their way home were the men's U22 football team and the
women’s football team, who won two gold medals for Vietnam.
Vietnam finished the competition in second place in the medal tally with 98
gold, 85 silver, and 105 bronze medals.
Following a successful campaign, the nation finished with six more gold medals
