Departure: Tan Son Nhat International Airport (SGN)
Flights from Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul leave from Tan Son Nhat International Airport (SGN), serving Ho Chi Minh City - ho Chi Minh City is the energetic southern capital of Vietnam, with Ben Thanh market, the Cu Chi tunnels and the Mekong delta. Plan to be at the airport about two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one; earlier at peak times. Online check-in opens 24 to 48 hours before and we send the link with your ticket. Getting to the airport: Metro line 1 and city buses do not stop at the airport terminal, so most visitors take a taxi, ride-hailing car or a private transfer; a private car with a driver waiting at arrivals is the easiest choice after a long flight, with luggage or for a hotel outside District 1.
- Online check-in opens 24-48 hours before; we send the link and the booking reference
- Keep the passport or ID used for booking with the e-ticket - names must match exactly
- Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book
- Haqqi Tours offers a private transfer from your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City to Tan Son Nhat International Airport
Arrival: Incheon International Airport (ICN) and getting into Seoul
The flight lands at Incheon International Airport (ICN). Seoul is the capital of South Korea, a city of palaces and neon along the Han river, served by Incheon International (ICN) about 50 km west on its own island and Gimpo (GMP) about 20 km west for domestic and short regional flights; Myeongdong, Gangnam, Hongdae and Insadong are the districts most visitors stay in. From arrivals you have taxis, metro, tram or bus and, if you book it with us, a Haqqi Tours driver waiting with your name. For a family with bags, a pre-booked airport transfer is the easiest way to finish the Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul journey: fixed price, flight tracked, straight to the hotel door.
Onward flights or trains from Seoul the same day can be added to the booking; let us know and we choose a Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul departure that leaves a safe connection.
Baggage, seats and classes on the Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul flight
Baggage is the item that most often changes the real cost of a flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul. Full-service fares normally 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.
- 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 airline; families seated together on request
- Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare
Flying with children, families and groups from Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul
Travelling with children? Put the ages on the form: infants and children have different fares and different baggage allowances, and we apply both. Groups - a company, a school, a wedding party - are booked together so everyone sits in the same section and one confirmation covers the whole party. Haqqi Tours also provides the minivans and Sprinters that carry a group between the airport and the hotel at both ends.
Things to do in Seoul when you land
Seoul is the capital of South Korea, a city of palaces and neon along the Han river, served by Incheon International (ICN) about 50 km west on its own island and Gimpo (GMP) about 20 km west for domestic and short regional flights; Myeongdong, Gangnam, Hongdae and Insadong are the districts most visitors stay in. Start with Bukchon Hanok Village, N Seoul Tower on Namsan and Myeongdong's shopping streets, then the Dongdaemun Design Plaza and Insadong's tea houses and galleries. A tip from our desk: Check whether you land at Incheon (ICN) or Gimpo (GMP) - they are 30 km apart - and at Incheon whether Terminal 1 or 2, which are 15 km apart on the same island; send the hotel name in Korean if you have it.
We offer tours and transfers in Seoul as well as the flight ticket - one conversation, one plan for the whole trip.
Best time to fly from Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul
Spring (April-May) and autumn (October-November) are the beautiful seasons; summer is hot and humid with the monsoon in July; winter is cold and dry with skiing near the city; the Chuseok and Lunar New Year holidays empty the city and fill the roads out of it. On the flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul, 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 Seoul to Ho Chi Minh City
The Seoul to Ho Chi Minh City flight is the same route in reverse, about 5 hours 15 minutes. Haqqi Tours arranges 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 Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul?
"How much is the Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul 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 can provide the current cost for your dates shortly afterwards of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.
Let us know for two or three options and we send the cost of each - for example the cheapest fare with hand luggage only, the same flight with a checked bag, and the best-timed departure of the day - so the comparison is in front of you before you book.
Cheapest flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul: how to pay less
A cheap Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul flight ticket is rarely luck. It is the right airline, the right day and the right fare class - which is what we look up for you:
- Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
- Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
- Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we check
- Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more
- Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays
- Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are generally cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
Send us the form with your dates and we tell you which departure is the cheapest flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul that day and what a slightly different day would cost.

Korean Air, Asiana Airlines, Vietnam Airlines, Vietjet Air and Jeju Air. We compare their fares, timings and baggage for your dates and send the ones that make sense.

As early as your dates allow. Low fare classes open months ahead and disappear as the plane fills; holidays, weekends and summer departures sell first.

It depends on the carrier and the fare class - flexible tickets can be changed, the cheapest usually cannot. We spell out the conditions before you confirm and handle any change for you afterwards.

Yes. Choose "return" on the form and give both dates; we compare a return fare with two singles and book the cheaper one. If the return date is not fixed, we explain the flexible options.

Send the short form on this page with your date, one-way or return, passengers and class. Our booking desk replies through WhatsApp with the flights that day, the baggage each fare includes and the cost; once you confirm, the electronic ticket arrives in the same chat.
Do you provide flights in the other direction or to other cities?
We do. Haqqi Tours books any route - the return from Seoul to Ho Chi Minh City, or onward flights from Seoul - and puts it all on one booking.
Can I book the Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul flight for a group?
Certainly. Give the number of travellers on the form; we book everyone together in one reservation and, when the numbers justify it, ask the carrier for a group fare.

Is baggage included in the Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul flight ticket?
