3.2. Understand Your Transit Route Clearly

When transiting in Vietnam via Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City, always check your layover airport and ensure you have enough time, ideally 90 - 120 minutes to change terminals or pass through security. Download the airport map or app for real-time gate updates, and review signage in advance to avoid confusion. Confirm with your airline whether your checked baggage is automatically transferred. If unsure, contact the airport’s customer service.

Clear signage and helpful staff make your transit smoother with Vietnam Airlines.

3.3. Visa Requirements for Vietnam Transit

Most passengers transiting less than 24 hours without leaving the airport don’t need a Vietnamese visa, making short layovers hassle-free. However, if you change terminals, leave the airport, or collect and re-check baggage, a transit visa or e-visa may be required, depending on your nationality. Check with the Vietnamese embassy or airline for the latest regulations, and carry supporting documents like your flight itinerary to simplify the process if a visa is needed.

3.4. Prefer Early Afternoon Flights

Early afternoon flights often have shorter layovers and better connections, providing a smoother travel experience. They also allow you to arrive in Bangkok by evening, giving you time to settle in and explore local eateries. Besides, avoid late-night flights to minimize fatigue, and opt for airlines with reliable on-time performance. Check airline schedules and consider booking during off-peak hours for added comfort and availability.
