Pros: "Check in was efficient. I like that they have generous carry on policy. No checked bag fees. Boarding was quick and easy."
Pros: "Crew were great. Seating was comfortable."
Cons: "Boarding seems a bit of a crazy process."
Pros: "Plane is good"
Cons: "Delay 2x poor"
Pros: "The flight attendants were wonderful and the business class seats were very spacious and comfortable."
Pros: "Friendly crew. Short flight, very efficient"
Pros: "I love flying on Vietnam Airlines Clean planes Crew always friendly and helpful"
Pros: "The flights left and arrived on time."
Cons: "When connecting from a domestic flight to an international flight in Hanoi they do not check your bags to the final destination. They also do not inform you that you have to change terminals when arriving in Hanoi. I barely made the connection because of these two issues."
Cons: "More chairs at boarding gate in Bangkok, please"
Pros: "The crew was very nice."
Cons: "There were passengers clapping through the whole flight."
Pros: "The entire flight was pleasurable. The crew was outstanding."
Cons: "Apparently the records showed that credit card used did not match with the actual card used. I used my Kayak account to book 7 tickets. My friend used his credit card to pay for all 7 tickets. The records showed that my wife’s credit card was used when in fact my friend’s card was charged."
Pros: "The seats were roomy and comfortable. For airline food, it was actually pretty tasty. The in-flight entertainment was very good. I wish Vietnam Air was available in the States!"
Cons: "Was denied entrance fir my wife to the lounge even having two passes both in my name. Was given one in Da Nang however lounge not open at 4:30 AM. My wife was traveling economy I was in business. Nasty reception at the Vietnam Air lounge in Hanoi. The other lounge great not affiliated with Vietnam."
Pros: "Only 15 minutes late, could have been worse"
Cons: "I had to use a belt extension, which did not work. I tried to attract the attention of the crew, but did not succeed."
Pros: "Smile"
Cons: "Smile"
Cons: "They changed the time without notice and wouldn’t even accept checked baggage."
Pros: "It was okay, really overpriced for what would have been a fine low-budget flight, like an Air Asia. If I had paid $200 or less for the flight, I would have no complaints about the comfort and service. But I paid over $600, so I'd expect a little more."
Cons: "Seat comfort, food, entertainment, boarding, disembarking."
Pros: "Boarding by rows - great!"
Pros: "Very quick procedures! Check in, boarding, disembarking"
Cons: "Seats are not comfortable"
Pros: "Comfortable seats"
Cons: "No vegeterian meal (all options include meat); the staff spoke English poorly; no media system; pretty old airplane"
Pros: "The guy who sat beside me was flying with a baby. The flight attendants were attentive to the needs of the baby, especially safety-wise."
Cons: "Boarding is very unorganized, and takes so much time. They could probably improve by assigning certain rows to use the front/rear door of the aircraft. For example: rows 1-15 use the front door, and 16-30 use the rear door. That way there’re not too much congestion and waiting on the aisle."
Pros: "Supper nice and sweet crew! Good food, nice service, comfortable chair <3"
Cons: "Delay 15’"
Pros: "Flight was generally ok."
Cons: "No power or USB ports."
Pros: "Comfortable, good food, good drinks , on time"
Cons: "Edited movies and the headsets were uncomfortable but you couldn't use your own because the left and right we're separated jacks"
Cons: "The plane was late in boarding, and even later in arrival. We were given no explanation, only an apology. And it turns out worse, because apparently we had been shifted to a plane that was going to continue into Laos, so the plane came in at the International Arrivals Section and we had to take a bus from there to get our luggage in the Domestic Arrivals Hall. Making it all even later. No food offered for this quite expensive flight, only water, and no entertainment either."
Pros: "The UA rep gave poor directions for transferring in Seoul; we ended up nearly missing the flight (and other UA passengers did miss it despite VN holding the plane for 40-plus minutes). The crew was helpful and friendly, defusing a truly stressful situation."
Pros: "Crew and airplane were great!"
Cons: "Food was not as good as I'd remembered on previous trips."
Cons: "Clean, organized and friendly service. The headsets are not well taken care of. I had to exchange twice due to the broken items."
Pros: "The whole flight"
Cons: "Nil by"
Cons: "In Beijing, the check in desk didn’t even post a sign saying that the desk moved from terminals E to terminal A. There was no self service kiosk so we were waiting around forever to get our Boarding pass."
Pros: "The crew was really polite, nice and helpful, a good change for someone that uses Chinese airlines"
Cons: "The food was really dreadful and I am used to the Chinese airlines standards so the bar is really low. Beef or pork as options, the meat was really bad"
Pros: "On time, clean, nice staff."
Pros: "Good weather and a quick smooth flight"
Cons: "They kept shutting the lights off. The plane was very hot when we first boarded. In the air the air conditioner slowly began to cool off the plane."
Pros: "Comfortable seats, but that was about it. Just ok."
Cons: "This was only a short flight 1.5 hours, but only provided water, unlike Thai airways which provided a meal."
Pros: "Priority boarding for pregnant passengers, leggy and clean"
Cons: "No personal service, meaning have to fill out the same waiver of liability every time we fly, even if flights are just a few days apart."
Cons: "They charged for overweight luggage; Vietnam was the only country to do this."
Pros: "Everything! The service, friendliness, food, movies, clean restroom, etc."
Pros: "On time, smooth flight"
Cons: "seats seem "cheap" plastic. They crackle as you move in them and don't seem to be a very high quality."
Pros: "The plane and food were good"
Cons: "Took a very long time to get checked bags"
Pros: "Great experience. Everyone very helpful."
Cons: "Our flight was scheduled to depart at 7:15 pm. We decided to grab a quick bite to eat before boarding. Our boarding pass indicated that boarding would begin at 6:45. They called "final boarding" at 6:35, just as we were wrapping up. I believe we were the last to board at about 6:35 or 6:40. Once we were on board the plane pulled away and departed a full half-hour before schedule. The early departure was welcome, but unexpected and made us feel more rushed than necessary without prior notice."
Pros: "For flying overseas the airplane was old and uncomfortable. I've flown overseas before and the seats have been a lot more comfy. The crew was fantastic and the food just crappy like any plane food."
Cons: "The seats and the food."
Pros: "excellent ,no complaints. Good flight all around."
Pros: "The rolls were warm. That is literally the only positive thing I have to say."
Cons: "My first flight was canceled, which I wasn't alerted to until after I arrived at the airport. They booked me on another one leaving 2 hours later, which was delayed by about another 5 hours. I suppose it was the weather, but a flight going to the same destination on the same airline managed to take off on time, and it was supposed to be leaving 40 minutes after my second flight. I have a hard time believing it was the weather, but who knows? There were absolutely zero gatw agents there to offer any helpful information. They eventually gave us food vouchers, but it was about 5 minutes after 90 percent of the applicable restaurants closed. Everyone on the flight was forced to eat at dairy queen, which quickly ran out of everything anyone wanted. I will never fly Vietnam Airlines again."
Pros: "None."
Cons: "Flight attendants were not friendly and courteous. There was not enough blankets for every passengers. Food was a cold sandwich with water, juice or soda only, no alcohol available on the international flight. Overall, I would give this airline a "F" for failing to keep up with the standard of other airlines."
Cons: "Cobraron dos veces el mismo pasaje y aún no tengo respuesta alguna ni devolución del dinero."
Pros: "No baggage charge, good comfortable plane."
Cons: "It wasn't possible to check baggage through to Yangon despite it being advertised as a connecting flight. Very annoying to have to collect and re check in at HCMC airport while in transit."
Cons: "I received at least 4 emails from Vietnam Airlines prior to my visit informing me of changes in our booking. All added time to our layover in either Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh on our return. Once we arrived in Hanoi we were informed of 2 more delays in our departure. I am traveling alone with 3 children all under 12 yrs &I make a concerted effort to book flight with the shortest layover possible. What would have been a 10hr door to door travel time turned into 16 hrs. Needless to say, I will not fly Vietnam Airlines by choice again."
Pros: "The service"
Cons: "It's a very short flight but the staff as always is very polite and welcoming"
Landing to Hanoi in time Seat not reclining -Cabin design very dull
Pros: "The professionalism of the airline crew."
Cons: "Taking off on time. It was a bumpy lift off and a bumpy landing. Other than that the flight was good."
Pros: "Relatively inexpensive and on time."
Cons: "Absolutely no customer support. No one to call or contact. In theory, they have a contact through Facebook but no one picks up. If you book through a major third party agency, you cannot log onto their system to make changes like add baggage. At the airport, they told me the only way to ask them is to come to the airport. How environmentally unfriendly and generally inconvenient. Especially in these days where such online services should be easy."
Pros: "At least they had a/c going"
Cons: "Very little leg room. No water offered."
Cons: "Not enough leg room in coach. I’m 180 cn"
Cons: "O lie check in and support terrible"
Cons: "A bit more space. Knees were right up against seat in front of me."
Cons: "Delay announced too late and no consideration for parents travelling with baby"
Pros: "Seat was good .. the flight was not full"
Pros: "Good quick Comfortable flight"
Pros: "Crew was ok"
Cons: "There was no beverage service per se. the cart came out, but I was never offered a beverage."
Pros: "For a budget airline, it's good. The plane is clean and the seats themselves are pretty comfortable."
Cons: "They have an extreme lack of communication with their ticketed passengers in terms of flight delays and boarding procedure."
Pros: "I like the price and the short lenght of time to it took."
Cons: "Can think of anything at this time."
Pros: "Plane was 1h late to take off but on time at landing"
Cons: "No power plug, no English magazine, no phone allowed (even in flight mode) for a 4 hours flight. So “entertainment” deserves 2 star only. As a couple travelling together, we were not seated together, which is very annoying (that was the case for other passengers too) even though a lot of single seats were empty in the plane (crew refused to let us swap places). That’s a 2 star for the crew. Food and beverage is pay only, and was real bad, that is the 1 star for food."
Pros: "Ok"
Cons: "25 min delay departure."
Pros: "Quick security, on time"
Cons: "The seats were really tight, no drink was offered and no entertainment"
Pros: "Excellent timely flight. No food or entertainment for this short flight. Should be not applicable option"
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "On time departure. Budget flight and you get what you pay for. Would happily recommend and use again."
Cons: "Legroom best described as cosy.On time departure. Budget flight and you get what you pay for. Would happily recommend and use again."
Pros: "All good"
Cons: "Nothing"
Pros: "Horrible"
Cons: "They wouldn't let us on the flight, even though we applied for a Vietnam passport. They were rude and I. Addition to ruining my vacation, they didn't accredit me my money for another flight."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Seat are to narrow"
Pros: "Crew very helpful Many drinks, coffee, tea & snacks were able to purchase in plane"
Cons: "Flight got delayed It was said it will take 4 hours & sometimes to arrive but it took 5 hours Purchased hot seat but there wad no much difference between normal seats"
Pros: "The plane didn't crash"
Cons: "So far 2 out of 3 flights were delayed, the luggage was lost and no one could figure out where I can go to find it, the seats super uncomfortable, the flight attendant ignored me every time because I was sitting at the window seat"
Pros: "We arrived"
Cons: "Started with booking, a package includes seats but the seats included we're all full,of i.e. need to pay more again.but100 Dollar for credit card booking? They are crazy! Check-infamily with just computers is terrible, didn't worked properly. Included food in package but can't choose, both legs the same food. Baggage damaged. Long walk in DMK to transfer, inefficient. Overall just a shitty experience!"
Pros: "Very delayed with no announcements!"
Cons: "Absolutely, no let room."
Pros: "Very delayed first segment. Fortunately the second segment was more delayed! No announcements about the delays."
Cons: "My knees were touching the seat ahead of me although the seat was upright. Any recline would have been unbearable & painful."
Pros: "Good: cheap and on time. Bad: aways slow check-in and uncomfortable seating. Everything a budget airline should be."
Pros: "Price and smooth flight"
Pros: "Great service. Beautiful flight attendants."
Cons: "Seats were a bit uncomfortable Disorganized check in and boarding"
Pros: "Fairly good value (although not particularly low fare)"
Cons: "Poor leg room and slow boarding by bus. Flight was late and no updates given."
Pros: "Pilot shorted flight time to compensate for a delay."
Cons: "Delay, long bus ride from tarmac to terminal, no USB charging stations at seats."
Pros: "On time and clean plane."
Cons: "Crew most interested in added sales and the booked meal was a pathetic dried up sandwich and cup of water. One of the worst meals on a plane ever. Most annoying were the constant advertising.for in plane sales."
Pros: "Quick boarding"
Cons: "No water or refreshments. Had to pay extra for whatever you wanted. Including water."
Cons: "Are you serious ? Checked bags are not included in the ticket???!!! Shame on you and your booking agency - we got charged an outrageous amount for something that should have been included or disclosed. I will NEVER utilize your website for any future bookings. Extremely disappointed in your professionalism."
Cons: "Long line to check in and people not polite."
Pros: "nothing"
Cons: "I felt like the airline was in business solely to make money not to provide excellent service for customers. The airline nickeled and dimed everything. Charged an arm and a leg for checked bags and charged PER KG on bags exceeding their limit."
Pros: "Good flight crew, on-time, all went well."
Cons: "No water was served, would have liked a bit more legroom."
Pros: "So many hidden fees and hassles with Asia Air...better to pay more with a better airline."
Pros: "The staff were friendly and polite."
Cons: "There was a slight delay."
Pros: "The crew were very efficient and friendly."
Cons: "There was an hours delay before boarding. We could see that the aircraft hadn't arrived so worked out that it was due to a late arrival. There were no announcements why it was delayed. I can appreciate that there is a tight schedule with delays being inevitable, however the lack of updates is what actually let the airline down."
Cons: "Hidden baggage fees, crammed in to seats, choppy ascent."
Pros: "The agents came and helped us get through the lines at Krabi Airport. Since Thai airports are awful, and never have enough staff, and don't manage queues, it was good that the agents came to help us cut in front of other poor souls who were waiting for later flights."
Cons: "The seat I was as in hardly fit my legs. As soon as the lady in front of my leaned her chair back, my knees were painfully crushed. I'm thin, and only 183 cm tall, which is perfectly average. It's a crime that Air Asia can't even provide me a seat that fits me."
Pros: "We landed safely."
Cons: "They charge for everything! Make sure you get to the airport early. The counter to pay for the baggage was backed up."
Cons: "extra charge for luggages no water on flight"
Pros: "Easy transfer, read the bad reviews. We had no issue bringing in food by the crew. Seriously these are cheap flights. They are giving you choices and pay accordingly according to your choices."
Cons: "Terminal changed twice so it was a bit confusing"
Pros: "Cabin crew professional, polite and efficient."
Cons: "We're accustomed to comp beverage like coffee water. If you don't buy it - you don't get it. Such is life these days."
Pros: "Nothing!!!"
Cons: "I bougt very expensive ticket and I had to pay 2500 THB for my luggage!!!!!/it was 20 kg luggage!!/"
Pros: "Very friendly crew!"
Cons: "Zero legroom"
The staff is kind and professionnal.
Good value airline for a LCC - food selection and drinks looked well priced. Flight was delayed and no rush to make up time
Ground crew clueless, delayed flight gate change without communication. Horrible experience. Will not fly Vietjet again.
No, comment Me and my family at the boarding gate more than 30 min early but the flight delayed and they still leave without us.
Very basic, all seats are non reclining
Pros: "Worst Airline Ever"
Cons: "Vietjet needs to update their refund policy"
Cons: "We left 1. 5 hours late! The only food on the plane was prepackaged chemical foods and the only vegan option was a porridge they pour water over ($2)."
Cons: "Flight was delayed - be on time"
Cons: "Avoid at all costs. Delayed both ways. On the way out of Danang they would not even tell us what time the flight would be departing despite numerous passengers asking. On the flight, a crew member stepped on my foot with her heel. My foot was NOT in the aisle, she has stepped in to get past a colleague. She didn’t even stop to apologize. Her colleague apologized and said I’ll get you a glass of water. She returned after a good 30 minutes with a paper cup of water. There was no enquiring how I was or if I needed anything. Will NEVER fly them again!"
Pros: "The food is good. Air crew is nice."
Cons: "Worth for money we paid"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Boarding on time instead of delay twice"
Pros: "delay"
Cons: "should be on time"
Cons: "I was charged for a medical device (CPAP) to carry it onboard the plane. Never had to pay before on any flight as FAA permits medical devices for free."
Pros: "The crew was very nice and helpful, comfortable seats and the airline seemed well run for a discount carrier."
Cons: "Getting to and from the plane, they use a bus and only had one bus so we was packed in like cattle on a truck"
Pros: "Fast and efficient and low cost budget"
Pros: "Nothing really impressive."
Cons: "The online boarding procedures was unavailable for non- Vietnamese. No reminder to tell us which terminal and cause me delayed to the flight, the airport reception was inexperience send me to a wrong terminal. Luggage charging was bad. If you declare online gives you half price and it doesn’t work"
Cons: "No free water on a 5 hour flight. Poor choice of snacks to purchase. No leg room. Chaotic at boarding time. Expensive for the service"
Pros: "It was on time for a change"
Cons: "The seats are uncomfortable. We requested 2 aisle seats. Given the ok, and then found out we were seated window and middle. How did that get lost in translation?"
Pros: "It was a direct flight to Phuket"
Cons: "Flight was delayed for 2 hours, then didn't board for another 45 minutes after that. We were given a mediocre coffee or soft drink in a lounge, no food. Basically the afternoon at Patong was wasted because we didn't arrive until after 5pm. Vietjet is renowned for this sloppiness and persistent delays."
Cons: "Delays with no explanation or expected timing"
Pros: "Quick flight"
Cons: "It was a quick flight from dalat to hmc. So I didn't expect a lot. But they charged for water and there were no tv's."
Pros: "Flight Cree good"
Cons: "Seats, no jet ways to board or deplane"
Cons: "Baggage policy ridiculous. I was prepared bc I’d heard about the 7g rule but still had me running around almost missing the flight to pay the fee at a different location than the check in desk. The other location had staff on a break. Then no one else at the check in wanted to accept payment so that I could move on to boarding. Staff not friendly about the whole process."
Cons: "No online check-in. Flight was late. No legroom."
Cons: "Flight was delayed an hour and a half without any information as to why. Major grievance was baggage policy. My wife and I have been traveling Asia for the last 7+ month and taken 35 flights to 10 different countries. This is the ONLY time we were told we needed to check our bags (which are both soft-sided and weight ~7kg). Apparently our small backpacks also counted toward the carry-on limit, which would have been fine if not for the following two contradictions: this was our THIRD flight with VietJet Air (one from Siem Reap to Hanoi, Hanoi to Da Nang, Da Nang to Ho Chi Minh) and we didn't have to check baggage the first two. We also saw at least half a dozen people get on our flight with either bags larger than ours, or carrying three pieces of luggage. Either enforce all the rules for everyone, every time they fly the airline, or not at all."
Pros: "Good pilot and crew, comfortable seats because we were given the ones right behind the exit row seats with some leg room."
Cons: "Our original flight time was delayed the first time, and then it got delayed AGAIN about 45 minutes after we got to the airport!"
Cons: "Took 2 flights with this airline and both flights were delayed! Will never fly with this airline again!!!"
Cons: "My flight was from Bangkok to Busan, via Hanoi. I was planning to transfer at Hanoi, but Vietjet did not offer transit service. I had to pass immigration (exit the country), then reenter. Luckily Korean citizens can enter Vietnam without visa; otherwise, I would have lost my luggage. Terrible service."
Pros: "It was exactly what we needed. On time flight with few frills but good price and efficient. No complaints at all. Crew did well keeping control of passengers that kept standing while seatbelt sign was on. Firm but not angry. Good job."
Pros: "Uneventful flight. Nothing worth writing home about. No food, no entertainment, no hassle either."
Cons: "VietJet Air has the habit of not announcing delays until after departure time. It was funny to see the billboards announcing: "On time", then "Boarding" when there was no aircraft in sight. On the Arrivals billboard, it showed the in-coming flight as "Landed", when it most obviously had not landed, and there was no information about when it might eventually arrive. With slow operations, we boarded 40 minutes mate and arrived a full hour late. The schedule had been 9:00 PM; days before flying it was pushed back to 10:00 PM. We actually were at the gate at 11:00 PM. VietJet Air is unfortunately the only airline operating a late flight from Pleiku to Ho Chi Minh. No competition means no pressure to be on time."
Pros: "Flights were on time and worked well for us. Flight attendants were helpful"
Cons: "The charges for each checked bag were annoying. We are a family of three and traveling with a 26 Kg kid but paying full price for our seats. With one checked bag the additional 4 Kg in the bag resulting in an upcharge seems foolish. Other passengers weighing 4 times as much pay the same ticket price as our smaller lighter weigh child."
Pros: "The plane got me to my destination"
Cons: "1) I had to check in my bag (which in any other fight I took was a carry on) 2) I booked thru kayak via kiwi and it was impossible to make a change even though I requested the change 1 min after my booking (I called and emailed them several times without success) 3) there was a delay in the gate and we were not kept up to date"
Pros: "Relatively cheap but you get what you pay for."
Cons: "They are super strict with the luggage, and you have to go through multiple steps. Operations are poor. Flight was delayed."
Pros: "Provide 30kg of luggage allowance and at least a clear method for prepurchasing luggage allowance in your website"
Cons: "Attendants gave the first three rows drinks, but didn't give the rest of the passengers anything."
Cons: "I don't like how the lineup was at check in. You go the counter to check in. Then go to another counter to limeuo again to pay for your bags. Then lineup again for checking in. Very frustrating and confusing. Flight was almost three hours delayed and they refused to change to earlier flight. Service was poor and staff spoke very limited English. Will try to avoid this airline in future. Not a great first time experience."
Cons: "This airline was impossible to get in touch with. THey we're not at all accommodating to my request to change the flight time and sleazily rip you off with what is written in the small print."
Pros: "Good value, and the planes were on time (We took a couple of VietJet flights). Staff was courteous and friendly.Inexpensive! Free bag."
Cons: "Somewhat arbitrary rules about how much your carry on can weigh. I don't really get why this makes much of a difference anyway, as the bag will be on the plane anyway."
Cons: "I am an average height United States male; never have I been so restricted by seat space."
Pros: "Airlineseriously delayed… Triples an hour duration flight… Delayed 2 1/2 hours seriously delayed… Triples an hour duration flight… Delayed 2 1/2 hours"
Cons: "Caroline is wonderful once the plane is able to get into the air"
Pros: "nothing"
Cons: "many delays, no associates anywhere in the terminal to address any issues even though they say repeatedly to see an agent if you have questions, horrible airline that does not deliver the service that is paid for"
Pros: "Reservations were relatively easy to make on line and relatively easy to purchase on-line."
Cons: "Purchasing tickets this way can result in a lot of confusion upon arriving at the Airport. Without any documents that the Check-in Counter can use to process Check-in, the traveller will find out that a visit is required to a separate desk to obtain your reservation number scribbled on a scrap of paper to take back to the Check-in Counter (after waiting on line there again) so that the agent can find your record and proceed with check-in. This two step process is confusing and not immediately obvious to even the seasoned International traveller. Good thing I'm not easily flustered!"
Pros: "Cheap fares"
Cons: "Late. Terrible boarding process, agents showed up 15 minutes prior to scheduled departure time, and then put a final boarding call on the message board everyone had a lineup in a long line and no rows called just first come first serve. Male flight attendants were rude."
Pros: "Staff onboard friendly"
Cons: "Flight check very slow"
Pros: "Fluent English, comfortable and ample seat space"
Cons: "2 things: 1) I've traveled dozens of airlines with the same carryon backpack. The ticket agent required me to weigh my bag and since it was greater than 7kg said I'd have to check it. 2) Flight crew was running late which is entirely understandable. BUT rather than let the 200+ passengers know what was happening the gate agents said nothing."
Pros: "Please be aware they can change flight times earlier without communicating"
