Flights
The three international airports in Vietnam are in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Danang,
with more than 30 international airlines flying to and from Vietnam to destinations
around the world.
These three international airports also serve as the major hubs for domestic flights
within Vietnam, with all other domestic flights connecting through one of these
hubs.

Vietnam Airlines
Vietnam Airlines, the state-owned airline, is the major carrier in Vietnam for domestic
flights. A second domestic airline, Pacific Airlines, which is owned by Vietnam
Airlines, also offers flights between Hanoi, HCMC and Danang.
Fares for domestic flights are fixed and determined by distance, although there
are some discount fares for advance purchase (with restrictions), late night flights,
and student and senior fares. Vietnam Airlines and Pacific Airlines both offer
similar levels of quality and safety, with Pacific Airlines offering slightly cheaper
fares.
Neither Vietnam Airlines nor Pacific Airlines currently offer e-ticketing or online
booking, although Vietnam Airlines has announced plans to start e-ticketing in early
2007.
What iViVu can offer:
- Domestic flights within Vietnam
- Outbound flights from Hanoi and HCMC to international destinations
- Regional flights within Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Thailand
For these, we have special travel agent prices that are not offered overseas outside
of the region, allowing us to offer customers the best prices.
While we can offer inbound flights from the world to Vietnam, our prices are often
not better than prices that you can get from your local travel agent or an online
travel company in the country from which you are starting travel. In addition,
Vietnam only offers paper tickets, meaning that we would need to charge you an extra
cost to mail to you the paper tickets.
