Arrival: Ho Chi Minh City Tan Son Nhat Airport (SGN) and getting into Ho Chi Minh City
Arrival is at Ho Chi Minh City Tan Son Nhat Airport (SGN), and the first decision is how to reach the city. Ho Chi Minh City is the energetic southern capital of Vietnam, with Ben Thanh market, the Cu Chi tunnels and the Mekong delta. We provide airport transfers in Ho Chi Minh City with a driver at arrivals, and we also tell you honestly if the train or metro from the airport is the better choice for where you are staying.
Arriving late at night? We note it and, if you have booked a transfer, the driver tracks the flight; a delay costs you nothing.
Baggage, seats and classes on the Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City flight
Baggage is the item that most frequently changes the real cost of a flight from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City. Full-service fares usually include a checked bag and a cabin bag; low-cost fares start with a small cabin bag and add the rest. We tell you the allowance of the fare we send, and whether adding a suitcase at booking is cheaper than at the airport (it almost always is). Seats can be selected on most airlines for a fee or free at check-in; in economy and business the differences are space, meals and flexibility.
- Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy
- Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
- Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
- Seat selection free or paid depending on the carrier; families seated together on request
Flying with children, families and groups from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City
Three things to know about the flight from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City with children: infants under two fly on a lap, children get their own seat and typically a lower fare, and a folding pushchair goes free. Groups get seats together and, on many airlines, a group rate. Let us know the numbers and we handle the rest, including the transfer with enough room for everyone.
Things to do in Ho Chi Minh City when you land
Ho Chi Minh City is the energetic southern capital of Vietnam, with Ben Thanh market, the Cu Chi tunnels and the Mekong delta. Start with Ben Thanh Market, Nguyen Hue walking street and Cholon and Thien Hau Temple, then Landmark 81 SkyView and a day trip to the Cu Chi Tunnels or the Mekong Delta. A tip from our desk: Tan Son Nhat has separate domestic and international terminals, so tell us your airline and flight number; allow 30 to 60 minutes to District 1 in daytime traffic, and give the driver the hotel name and address in writing.
We offer tours and transfers in Ho Chi Minh City as well as the flight ticket - one conversation, one plan for the whole trip.
Best time to fly from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City
December to April is dry and slightly cooler, and May to November brings short heavy rain showers most afternoons; it is hot and humid all year, and traffic peaks from 07:00 to 09:00 and 16:30 to 19:30. Tet in late January or February is quiet in town but very busy on the roads. On the flight from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City, seasons show in fares more than in schedules: holiday departures fill first, so we recommend booking early for summer, Christmas, New Year, Eid and Easter journeys.
Return flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi
The Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi flight is the same route in reverse, about 2 hours 5 minutes. Haqqi Tours can provide the return ticket in the same conversation; if you are not yet sure of the return date, we can book a flexible outbound or wait, and explain which is cheaper.
How much is a flight from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City?
"How much is the Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City flight?" is the question we get most, and the honest answer is that it moves every day. Low fares open months ahead and disappear as seats sell; peak seasons, school holidays and the most convenient departure times cost more; a fare with a checked bag and a flexible ticket cost more than a hand-luggage-only seat. Haqqi Tours arranges the current cost for the date you travel in a few minutes of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.
The figure we send is the total: ticket, taxes and the baggage included in that fare. If a departure two hours earlier is cheaper, or a different airline includes a suitcase for the same money, we say so, because the cheapest Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City flight is often not the one at the top of a search.
