3.2. Stay nearby The Boarding Gates
While Vietnamese international airports provide clear signage in both Vietnamese and English, navigating unfamiliar terminals can still require additional time, especially during peak travel periods. Hence, for transit flights with short layovers of less than 5 hours, passengers should remain in proximity to their assigned boarding gate or designated waiting area. This also helps you stay informed about gate changes or boarding updates more easily.
3.3. Be Aware of Time Zone Differences
Vietnam runs on Indochina Time (ICT), UTC+7, while India uses Indian Standard Time (IST), UTC+5:30. This means Vietnam is 1 hour and 30 minutes ahead of India. Passengers are advised to adjust their own devices before arrival to get used to the new time zone.
3.4. Purchase Travel Insurance Online
When taking international trips with connecting flights, travel insurance can save you from a lot of headaches if things don't go as planned. Vietnam Airlines offers TripCARE Insurance that covers problems like flight delays, cancellations, and lost luggage during your journey from Delhi to Nha Trang.
