Cons: "Having announcements in the lounge or a better choice of beverages on board would be great....also surprised there were zero reading materials available in business class"
Pros: "Check in was good"
Cons: "Food. Don’t serve anything if it is going to be that bad. And offer beverages"
Pros: "Check in was efficient. I like that they have generous carry on policy. No checked bag fees. Boarding was quick and easy."
Pros: "Vietnam airlines stands out in SE Asian carriers. Great service and planes leaving and arriving on time."
Cons: "Keep up great service standards"
Pros: "Crew were great. Seating was comfortable."
Cons: "Boarding seems a bit of a crazy process."
Pros: "Plane is good"
Cons: "Delay 2x poor"
Cons: "On-time departure"
Cons: "Very little. Just a great flight ."
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: "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: "Great service from start to finish"
Cons: "Food"
Pros: "The check-in staff realised we hadn't allowed enough time to transit in Ho Chi Minh city, so they seated us close to the front and put business class tags on our luggage. They were the first on to the carousel."
Cons: "Every one of our legs was delayed, which contributed to tight transit times."
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: "Excellent service"
Cons: "Delayed with no announcements or explanation."
Pros: "The ground staff assisted us when a flight was changed for some reason. They immediately rebooked it."
Cons: "It was early but that was our choice!"
Pros: "Don't expect to be ontime, or have announcements when there is a gate change. Airport employees are more annoyed that you are visiting then what you would expect. Air doesn't run on the plane until your 10k up. HOWEVER, we got there safely and my bag showed up so all in all its fine."
Cons: "Last minute wanted to check our luggage as the plane was boarding and almost caused us to miss our flight. Flight crew unhelpful and not friendly"
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: "Flight was generally ok."
Cons: "No power or USB ports."
Pros: "New plane, service great, process fine."
Cons: "Plane was delayed 20 minutes for takeoff. Turbulence over HCMC was handled ok."
Pros: "The flight attendants are friendly"
Cons: "The food is a bit “pedestrian”"
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: "Plane was clean. Staff were pleasant and professional."
Cons: "Flight from TPE to SGN A321 was very comfy able."
Cons: "The flight was 3 hours late. My seat was wet when we boarded. I’m not sure it was really the crews fault, but still sucked and not a great experience."
Pros: "The captain was friendly and informative"
Cons: "The food was terrible and the staff was rude"
Cons: "Food... only could have the fruit"
Pros: "Food served inflight was excellent, new airplane, and comfortable legroom"
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: "Unexpected charge of $450 to transfer planes in Vietnam. Worst purchase ever."
Pros: "Bottled water and ample leg room pretty much sums up this short flight from Phu Quoc to SGN."
Cons: "Crew at check-in counter was not friendly or helpful. Even though our pregnancy was documented a week earlier by Vietnam Airlines, she made us go through the same process, though we showed her we had the same form already in our possession."
Pros: "The leg room is one of the best in economy class. At six feet tall, I was able to stretch my legs and not have my knees against the seat in front of us. The personal entertainment console worked perfectly with clear picture and sound, though the free headphones were uncomfortable. Boarding crew allowed us to cut in line since we had a 2 year old. Very appreciative for that, and appreciative for their sternness with those customers who were trying to slip in in front of us."
Cons: "Crew on board came across as a little unfriendly, though professional seriousness might have been mistaken as annoyance. The food was passable, but definitely not quality. Sufficient amount of beverage was served."
Cons: "They charged for overweight luggage; Vietnam was the only country to do this."
Pros: "Food: good recipes, shoved out hot"
Cons: "Ticketing desk chaotic with apathetic staff; no sense of first-come-first-serve; you have to be firm about people cutting in front of you and be sharp when they open or close the stations. On the plane, crew performs responsibility checklist, not a smidgeon more; no sense of hospitality or gratiousness; cattle car mentality. Blanket received not in a wrapper and smelled of another person. Plane from Singapore late. Bus transit instead of jetway. Bus late; long time standing on plane waiting to exit."
Pros: "The crew was nice, boarding was easy"
Cons: "No entertainment and the business class seat doesn't lay flat all the way."
Pros: "Overall my experience was good. Pros: seat are comfortable. The jet seemed more spacious than ANA airlines. Cons: workers know little English compared to ANA from checking in to the flight attendants. I think this was the most disappointing because the language barrier was frustrating when needing help going the right direction and having questions about checking in. The food was OK. The fruit tasted rotten and the food didn't seem as fresh either. The customer service was also mediocre. When I was on ANA airlines all the staff were very helpful and they seemed statisfied with their jobs. When I travel to ASIA again I will try and avoid Vietnam airlines."
Cons: "See above"
Pros: "Staff were excellent. Plane was nice and clean. I would not hesitate to fly with then again."
Pros: "Efficient in time fight in an excellent aircraft B788-9"
Pros: "Great safe airline. Friendly flight attendants. Roomy seats."
Pros: "Stewards were friendly and helpful. Seats comfy. Take off and landing smooth. Highly recommend when traveling within Vietnam. Plus: they're a Delta partner do FF points!"
Pros: "The flight had many open seats, the crew helped to board passengers efficiently, the food was plentiful and they even offered wine on a 3 hour flight. It was delightful."
Cons: "There weren't individual entertainment systems."
Cons: "The lack of support to help us to rearrange flight. No explanation"
Pros: "Very attentive to handicapped passengers. Which is me. Yhe flight is short yet they served a light lunch we seemed like a waste to. I had a coke. The plane was clean I love the hostess uniforms. Beautiful and very feminine. Refreshing in today's world"
Cons: "For a short hop I have nothing to suggest. Perfect"
Cons: "Cobraron dos veces el mismo pasaje y aún no tengo respuesta alguna ni devolución del dinero."
Pros: "Did not have food so can't commen. This airline reminds me of Cathay pacific I really liked it. I have down Vietnam airlines several times Good English and on time. They know how to deal with people in wheelchair. I will fly every time I can"
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."
Pros: "friendly air crew"
Cons: "limited film and entertainment"
Pros: "Nice big A321, Well flown, on time."
Cons: "Couldn't check bags through to Phenom Penh, a MAJOR #fail for a so-called "international" airport and a huge pain in the butt. So had to collect bags in HCMC and re-checkin for next flight. How is that "connecting" as advertised when I bought the ticket?"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Staff must friendly"
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: "The flight was on time and efficient"
Cons: "The place was old and very dirty. There was no drink service."
Pros: "afforadable fares"
Cons: "cleaner cabin. There was visible stains on the floor in front of my seats and I'm supposed to put my bag there."
Cons: "Always the same problem - not enough leg room."
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: "Staff was professional"
Cons: "Seat comfort"
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."
Cons: "A seat that did not jolt and move around. Legroom seat on offer for free as no one had them."
Cons: "Great flight experience"
Pros: "Generally okay and what one could reasonably expect for a regional low cost flight in Thailand. Ground staff were friendly and helpful despite huge numbers of people travelling. Likewise the cabin crew did their best given the low cost nature of the flight and having a full plane."
Cons: "Paid for seat selection, which I thought brought with it some priority in boarding, however that was not to be and instead boarding was a bit of a free-for-all with no management of the situation by ground staff. The seat pitch is also hideous and even being of average height it was near impossible to even move my legs to retrieve something off the floor."
Pros: "Ok"
Cons: "25 min delay departure."
Pros: "Flight arrived early quick and easy boarding Good seat"
Cons: "Nothing. It was just as expected"
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: "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: "Luck of information about baggage which cost me about more than the ticket and more than $100. In my point of view, all of the traveller should get laggage allowances for international. I have never experienced laggage allowances for international flights. Very very disappointed!!!"
Cons: "Luck of information about baggage which cost me about more than the ticket and more than $100. In my point of view, all of the traveller should get laggage allowances for international. I have never experienced laggage allowances for international flights. Very very disappointed!!!"
Pros: "AIR conditioned cabin while boarding= no sweat.."
Cons: "Plane arrived from Bangkok late so our flight was late. No notice given. Lithium battery packs are allowed on board but not in checked baggage. Bag security used to be before check in but ate not in BKK DM. Huge hassle trying to get battery pack back when back at.DM. ugly."
Pros: "The price"
Cons: "No drinks, no entertainment, no real service and very cramped. It is what is for the price!"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "The plane was late 1 hr and it was already after midnight. We asked the baby stroller to waiting for us when exiting the plane door but they sent it to the belt so we had to carry 2 little boys on our hands thru the entire visa and passport control process while they are sleeping! To add on that our suitcase arrives torn! Really depressing service."
Pros: "Great service. Beautiful flight attendants."
Cons: "Seats were a bit uncomfortable Disorganized check in and boarding"
Pros: "Short flight, cheap, efficient"
Cons: "lack of room on plane, ground check in staff not very helpful at Surat Thani Airport"
Pros: "Price"
Cons: "Usually not on time - frustrating."
Pros: "The price was cheap and with the value deal you get 20kg can choose a seat and get a small sandwich and water that's alright. Boarding was fast."
Cons: "It was quite bumpy throughout both flight were I was wondering why it was perfect weather. Both my flights were delayed You have to pay for everything wondering why I don't have to pay for the toilet. =)"
Pros: "Good crew and efficient service"
Cons: "Flight was 80 minutes late due to delay on incoming aircraft."
Cons: "Luggage fee for less than 20kg for one way is more than the ticket itself? How rediculous!"
Cons: "Even for a reduced fare, I've never been on any other airline that even makes you pay for water. I've flown many other reduced fare lines that still offer you a beverage and a small snack, even if only peanuts or pretzels. That this flight offers no beverage or food without payment is disappointing."
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."
Pros: "I booked 2 seats together by the window, and instead got two aisle seats. They would not reseat us at check in even though there was plenty of room on the flight. Mediocre food."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Good was terrible, even though looked great on pictures on the website when I placed the order. Boarding system was inefficient and caused the flight leaving late. Seats are small and cheap made (even though we bought economy comfort seats). Flight attendants weren't friendly, poor manners. Won't recommend them at all, won't fly them again for sure,"
Pros: "The crew was efficient for getting everyone settle and take off in no time!"
Cons: "Need to change the carry on bag to 15 kg! 7 kg is not efficient!!"
Pros: "Comfortable seats, efficient boarding and check in, kind staff, flight landed early"
Cons: "Website wouldn't let me purchase baggage in advance. Kept sending error messages. I tried the live chat but a message said too many people were already asking questions, come back later. So I had to pay full price for baggage which I was not happy with :("
Cons: "MY FAULT TOTALLY. I forgot to order vegetarian food, offer one meatless and one meat entree perhaps."
Cons: "Do not even give you water"
Cons: "Had to pay hundred dollars for my bags and they charged me 80 baht for A bottle of water you need to tell people that got to pay for bags"
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."
Pros: "short and sweet"
Cons: "charge for checked bags"
Pros: "Nothing."
Cons: "They tried to make me pay almost 400 Canadian dollars for my 20 kg bag! I ended up still having to pay 87 Canadian but because it was unexpected it was unimpressive to say the least. Then once on board they won't even give you water or anything!!! What a joke. Not what we are used to in Canada."
Pros: "Not a thing."
Cons: "I will never fly with AirAsia again. Absolutely no service on an international flight is rediculous."
Cons: "No food or beverages served, seats wouldn't recline, bag fee"
Pros: "The online system did not work and we were asked to pay 900 for each 15kg suitcase."
Cons: "2 hour flight with no drinks."
Pros: "The flight itself was fine. No issues."
Cons: "I paid $144 USD to check 2 bags because Kayak give me the option of including checked bags (I thought it was already included) and didn't inform me of the need to pay for checked luggage ahead of time to avoid high fees."
Pros: "It got me there"
Cons: "The bagage fee for one checked bag was excessive. The cost of the flight for distance high."
Cons: "I did not use the flight because I accidentally purchased the flight going the wrong direction. Immediately upon pressing the purchase button I realized my mistake and attempted to fix it only to find out that even though I purchased through Kayak, Air Asia would be responsible for all customer service. Upon finally getting a hold of them after several hours of frustration I was told that not only was there no way to cancel it, I could not even use the price paid as a credit for the opposite route regardless of the fact that I was attempting to rectify this seconds after purchasing. I expected to be using Kayak as a point of customer service and was the only reason I went the route I did to purchase the ticket."
Pros: "Getting on board plane."
Cons: "There was a 40 minute delay. No information for other passengers for flight after us. So hence chaos for our flight."
The staff is kind and professionnal.
Maybe there was something wrong with pressure sensor or something. my ear was very uncomfortable and many babies were crying like hell. It happened during landing.
Flight has change gate in the last moment and announce last call . Our experience is we are booked flight from Dps to ho - Vietnam .my flight actual time was 2:05 pm but flight departure 1 pm . Service was not good
Ground crew clueless, delayed flight gate change without communication. Horrible experience. Will not fly Vietjet again.
Everything seems good so far, only thing is delay...2nd time flying with vietjet and 2nd time got delay :(
No in flight entertainment, no food, not even drinking water, uncleaned flights, smelly bathrooms, and above all no baggage allowance, they charged us 53700 yen for the baggages.
Very basic, all seats are non reclining
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"
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"
Cons: "Airport reception is inexperience, could provide us the info we need. Luggage charging 2 for 70kg which is retarded. If you pay online or declare online it gives you discount, unfortunately that doesn’t work on visitors. The check innprocuedure was ineffective and waste lots of time"
Pros: "Fast and efficient and low cost budget"
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Customer service. Not helpful at all. They were more interested in getting rid of us. There was a man in a wheelchair who injured his leg in a bike accident. He needed to get to Vietnam for medical help. They told him they couldn’t accommodate him. They also refused to give helpful. They just left him. Your airline is run by heartless people. I would never recommend Viet jet to my worst enemy"
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: "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"
Pros: "Plane was clean and boarding was efficient. Good value. Flight was on time."
Cons: "Online booking experience was confusing as I was rerouted to Kiwi. Tried to pay for both bags at time of booking but was told due to a technical issue I had to pay at the airport. When checking in was forced to pay in cash. More of an inconvenience and caught us off guard. Plane was old and seats were very small and uncomfortable."
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!!!"
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: "Was on time and cheap."
Cons: "I received a text saying the departure time was delayed 5 hours but that was not true. Don't know where or why the text."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "No guide telling where to find Vietjet ticket counter for check in. I missed my flight and slept on the floor. No follow up and I had to book with Vietnam Airlines with no refund or voucher. I'll only fly Vietnam Airlines in the future."
Pros: "Nothing too special to say here. One nice thing was that the lady that checked us in let us carry-on our overweight bags."
Cons: "I wish they had in-flight entertainment, but it's not that big of a deal."
Pros: "Cheap flights but u get what u pay for"
Cons: "2 delays of 10hrs"
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."
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."
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"
Cons: "I was on an International flights, 3.5 hours. Their website didn't mention any additional fees for check-in luggage, I didn't expect that as most airlines don't charge extra fees on international routes, how surprised was I when at the check-in counter I was ask to pay $36 for my 10kg backpack. I feel I was scammed."
Pros: "Not much"
Cons: "Bus instead of ramp boarding. No food or drinks provided. The carts raced by us and did not stop to ask if we wanted a purchase. No leg room in seats."
Pros: "Nothing"
Cons: "Have an error in system. I can't join the flight"
Cons: "There is no entertainment in flight and baggage check in is an issue ."
Pros: "Clean, efficient, new aircraft, very good value"
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: "Check in and boarding processes were actually ok this time! Decent timeliness and decent comfort level on flight."
Cons: "I understand that a budget flight will sell food and drink for money, but I feel it would be common courtesy if they at least provided water free of charge if a client asked."
Cons: "Booked a midday flight directly with VietJet only to find the flight no longer was flying that day. We had been up onto a completely different flight, 4.5 hours later, with no communication whatsoever. We had paid extra for certain seats, And we're told during checkin these were given away. Thankfully they gave us the seats 1 row in front of what we'd booked. They should really tell passengers about flights, as this could have caused a lot of issues if choosing connecting flights. We were lucky to be able to rearrange our pick up."
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"
Pros: "Doing its job to fly you on time with good schedule. For less than 1 hour flight that's all you need"
Cons: "#Delayed for about three-quarters of an hour. #Cramped seating. #Coffee unpleasant. #Male crew abrupt."
