3. 4 Tips for Visitors Flying from India to Da Nang

Now that you’ve covered flights and transportation, it’s time to consider practical travel tips that can help make your trip more enjoyable. From saving money to cultural prep, here’s what to keep in mind.

3.1. Find The Best Deals

To save on airfare, consider joining Vietnam Airlines' Lotusmiles frequent flyer program. This loyalty program allows you to accumulate miles with each flight and redeem them for ticket discounts, seat upgrades, or free services. Members also enjoy priority check-in, additional baggage allowances, and exclusive promotional fares throughout the year.

Vietnam Airlines often launches limited-time sales for round-trip international tickets, particularly during festive seasons or mid-year promotions. Booking your flight at least six weeks in advance and targeting mid-week departures (like Tuesday or Wednesday) can further reduce your fare.

3.2. Choose a Seat in Advance

Vietnam Airlines’ Advanced Seat Selection service gives you the freedom to choose your preferred seat well before departure. This is especially helpful for long flights with transits, where seat comfort can impact your in-flight experience.

For example, if you prefer mobility and quick access to the aisle, perhaps to stretch during layovers, select an aisle seat. On the other hand, a window seat is ideal if you want to enjoy aerial views or avoid disturbance while sleeping.

3.3. Check Visa Requirements

Before booking your ticket, foreign passengers need to verify Vietnam's visa policy. Most travelers from India will need to apply for a Vietnam e-visa, which allows a stay of up to 90 days, single or multiple entry. The e-visa can be easily obtained online through Vietnam’s official immigration website, usually within 3 - 5 working days. Your passport must be valid for at least six months beyond your intended entry date.
