  • Which city should I fly into to access Luang Prabang?

    This is one of Southeast Asia's most charming cities and one of Laos's main attractions. It is a cultural and historical hub, and if you want to visit the city of Luang Prabang, book your flight to Luang Prabang International Airport (LPQ). This airport is one of the international airports serving Laos, and it is only 2.5 miles from the city center, with easy transportation options. It is the second busiest airport in Laos, offering many regional and domestic flights.

    The shortest route to Muang Long in northern Laos from the U.S. is flying to Chiang Mai International Airport (CNX) in Thailand, approximately 124 miles from the city. You can take flights that connect through Bangkok from one of the major cities in the U.S., then hire a car or take a bus to Muang Long.

  • Which is the best airport to fly to in Laos?

    Wattay International Airport (VTE) is your best bet if you fly to Laos from the US. This is the biggest airport in Laos, serving its capital Vientiane and its environs. The airport is about 2 miles from the city center with easy transportation options from the airport. Based in the capital city, VTE gives you an advantage as you will have easy access to other modes of transportation if you want to explore other smaller towns in Laos. It also serves as the base for Lao Airlines, which offers connections to many domestic and international routes.

  • Which airport is closest to Buddha Park (Xieng Khuan)?

    Buddha Park (Xieng Khuan) is closest to Wattay International Airport, approximately 16 miles south. Multiple transportation options to the park from the airport include a taxi or private car. You can also take a bus from Vientiane city center to the park, a 30-40 minute ride depending on traffic.

    There are no nonstop flights from the Us to Laos. However, you will find several single-layover flights on this route, departing from most of the major airports in the US. If you're flying from New York airport (JFK), you will have flights heading into Wattay International Airport (VTE), offered by Korean Air and Lao Airlines, with a layover in Seoul (ICN). If you are flying from Los Angeles (LAX) or Chicago (ORD), the situation is pretty much the same, with the stopover in ICN.

    If you wish to fly to Laos from Southeast U.S., you’ll find connecting flights departing from Orlando International Airport (MCO), Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), and Tampa International Airport (TPA). Different airlines offer flights with two or more stops to VTE from these airports.

  • Which airport should I fly to visit the northern part of Laos?

    If you will be visiting the northern regions of Laos, the best airport to fly to is Louang Namtha Airport (LXG). It is the main airport serving the biggest city in the north, Louang Namtha. The airport is served by Lao Airlines and Lao Skyway, and it operates regular flights to and from Vientiane.

They are the two airlines that offer most flights on this route, departing from most major airports in the US. Some flights are a collaboration between the two, with others offered by only solo airlines. However, for good rates and more domestic connections in Laos, we recommend flying with Lao Airlines, which has its hub at Wattay International Airport (VTE).

  • Which airports should I fly to if I plan to visit Western Laos?

    If you’re visiting different destinations in Western Laos, you can fly to various airports in the region, including Pakse International Airport (PKZ) and Savannakhet Airport (ZVK). They are served by domestic flights from VTE and airports in neighboring countries like Thailand and Vietnam.

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Laos

  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Laos flight deals.
  • Wattay International Airport (VTE) and Luang Prabang International Airport (LPQ) are the two main airports serving international flights from the US. However, most flights head into VTE first before LPQ, meaning all US-LPQ flights have at least two stopovers.
  • There are limited dining options at Wattay International Airport (VTE) for travelers who want to grab a bite or drink after a long flight to Laos. You’ll find a buffet-style restaurant and a café on the 3rd Floor.
  • Luang Prabang International Airport (LPQ) is a secondary hub for Lao Airlines. The airport serves as a regional hub for flights to neighboring Thailand and cities such as Vientiane and Phongsali.
  • Travelers from South Central U.S. can find connecting flights to Laos at George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) in Houston, Texas. Multiple airlines offer flights with two or more stops from this departure point.
  • If you are flying from the west coast to Laos, consider booking your flight from Los Angeles International (LAX). It is a better option than SFO, as it offers regular single-layover flights to VTE.
  • Looking for a place to relax after a long flight to Laos? You can check into the Business Lounge in the main Terminal at VTE. Those flying through Luang Prabang International Airport (LPQ) can relax at the Bangkok Airways Lounge. These lounges are accessible to all if you purchase a day pass. You’ll find comfortable spaces, free Wi-Fi, and different cuisines.
  • Passengers on the east coast only have one sure bet for flights to Laos, New York Airport (JFK). JFK offers daily flights to Laos, offered by the three major airlines plying this route: Asiana Airlines, Korean Air, and Lao Airlines.
  • If you will be flying from the central US, the best airport to fly from is Dallas Fort Worth International (DFW). From DFW, you can get one-stop flights from the US to Laos, heading into VTE. These flights are offered by a partnership between Korean Air and Lao Airlines.
  • If you will be heading into southern Laos, the best airport to fly into is Savannakhet Airport (ZVK). It is an international airport serving the city of Savannakhet, and it is served by Lao Airlines. You will get regular flights from VTE, and to Bangkok and the neighboring Pakse Airport.
  • There are no US carriers that offer flights to Laos direct. If you want to fly with a US carrier, the flight will include at least two stopovers, one in the US and another in Asia, most probably ICN.

It was amazing. I was not expecting the phenomenal customer service Asiana provides.

It was amazing. I was not expecting the phenomenal customer service Asiana provides.

The seats felt very small. We were supplied with pillows and blankets, which was nice. Lots of noise from the bathroom, plus exterior noise. Made it hard to hear the entertainment system, even using my own noise-cancelling headphones. The food was really bad. I generally request a vegetarian meal and one was supplied, but the pasta was cold and hard and there was nothing pleasant about it. Two meals were served on this flight; one was a repeat of the meal I had had on the flight immediately preceding this one, which was bad enough I didn't even try it. Drinks were very limited. All I wanted was water, and on a 10.5 hour flight, I was given 3 cups of about 3 ounces each.

I generally request a vegetarian meal and one was supplied, but the pasta was cold and hard and there was nothing pleasant about it. Drinks were very limited. All I wanted was water, and on a 4 hour flight, I was given 2 cups of about 3 ounces each.

We took business class, It was comfortable and I was able to sleep.

For the most part, it was an enjoyable experience. It's the 2nd half of the journey was a bit uncomfortable. It was on a noticable smaller plane compared to the previous one.

Only process that my luggage didn’t make it to my destination because of short connection but I understand

The boarding process was good. The toilet could be better maintained.

This has been the worst experience I've ever had. We arrived to Ho Chi Minh Airport and were supposed to get our Asiana ticket from the transfer counter as we came with a different airline. However, the staff at the transfer counter were not helpful and kept giving us different information. We were first told by Asiana airlines staff we had to wait 2 hours so they could print out and give us our tickets, then someone else told us we had to wait 3hrs, someone told us "I don't know, just go sit and wait and we will tell you later." This was at a place in the Ho Chi Minh airport that had no coffee or food shops, nothing, just immigration (to enter Vietnam with a Vietnam Visa) and security (to transfer into the gates) but we needed our printed boarding pass to go through. It wasn't until we demanded to speak to a supervisor as our flight time was 1hr away because they kept telling us "there's alot of time left for your international flight, we will get your tickets later" we still had to wait around 20minutes for the "Supervisor" to give us our tickets. I would NOT recommend Asiana Airlines, especially if going thru Ho Chi Minh Airport as they are not helpful. (We almost missed our flight, due to their lazyness and incompetence of printing our tickets) I would suggest Asiana Airlines to have a Machine in the transfer area so passengers can easily print out their boarding passes themselves and save some money by not hiring incompetent staff that can't do a simple task such as printing a boarding pass.

I like the food, the crew and everything.!!! Except for the delay in our flight.

Great service and comfortable seats. The first meal was excellent but the second meal was only satisfactory

Horrendous. We upgraded and they took the money but cancelled one of our tickets. The recline action didn’t work on the seats for the flight from Singapore to London, pre booked meals but they seemed to have disappeared as well.. Phone customer service was horrendous. Took 5 phone calls and no fix. Craig at the airport was the only one who seemed to be able to get the ticket back.

Very good flight from Boarding to landing -efficient and comfortable with decent entertainment options

Construction at PDX resulting in very lung walk from the rental car to the gate. SFO, extremely long walk between terminals to get to connecting Singapore airlines flight. My smart watch recorded a total of 3 miles.

Crew and service was excellent, but passengers should be offered a welcome drink before take off which did not happen. Food was very good. Unfortunately the lie-flat bed in business class was one of the most uncomfortable I have experienced. The configuration forces you to sleep with your legs at an angle instead of in a straight line, plus there is very little padding on the bed so it wasn't possible to sleep for more than 2-3 hours on an 18 hour flight. For what the airlines charges for a business class ticket their hard product leaves a lot to be desired.

Food could have been better. Too many passengers getting up and down all the time.

It was very good experience on board to Sydney with SQ.

Everything was great keep up the good work 😁, can't ask for more.

Flight from SFO did not include entertainment as it was not working the entire duration of the flight. Was informed that there would be a $350 voucher for the inconvenience. Uncertain how the voucher will be provided.

It was an average flight. I would have expected more from this airline. Food, seats, service, etc was just average. I just give them some extra points for offering free WiFi on board with just a Krisflyer account.

The food options and quality could use some more excitement and variety.

2 hours delay, time changes started already 2 days before the flight

Average, not more then that. Cannot compete with Singapore Airlines

I bought the front row seat and made and early online check in but they changed my seat to the back row without prior notice. The inflight meal was too poor, only a piece of small finger food. The boarding is a disaster, everyone is stuffed in a bus in chaos. Doesnt worth the money at all.

Poor. Flight was delay without prior notice. Poor boarding. Poor meal service. Plane was dirty and smelly. Does not worth the money.

Overall very nice airline. The seats were cloth unlike leather seats I am accustom to on planes. The food was adequate. I had to use a paper boarding pass as they do not like electronic boarding passes. I scanned my electronic pass, but the gate agent requested the paper pass. Luckily I had a paper pass, although my electronic pass worked and when the paper pass was scanned it stated I was already on board.

Overall very nice airline. The seats were cloth unlike leather seats I am accustom to on planes. The food was adequate.

I am a bit upset with the check in counter, I signed up a wheelchair for my mom so they wouldn’t grant us her boarding pass. We got to the airport a couple of hours earlier and they had us wait and no one ever gave us her boarding pass or the wheelchair, I had to go back and complain when it was already time for our flight to board. Since we got their earlier, I could have easily pushed my mom myself and we could have relaxed and went to the lounge while waiting… when I finally got someone to help us he couldn’t explain how and why they dismissed us in the first place.

Was on holiday with my partner and we booked with Vietnam airlines as it not meant to be a budget airline. They separated us and made us sit at either end of the plane. Not the way I planned to spend my time on my holiday separate from my loved one. How can they separate people on the same booking. They know we are together and spending quality time together.

I had sometimes my trips with Vietnam Airlines and I like it 😊

The check-in process was great, and I cannot remember the name of the supervisor, but he was good and told us about the transit process very correctly and efficiently and kindly. We were given down access and the overall process was very efficient.

China Southern was not the problem. I booked my flight through Kayak and also received a booking reference and alert details regarding departure time and gate numbers… however Kayak NEVER actually booked my flight! We were stranded at the airport without a flight for a long awaited holiday!

The connection between LA and Atlanta was too much stress

Terrible boarding experience,,food is very poor that I I . Never going book this airline again.

The crew were kind, patient and responsive. The service was excellent, even though we travelled the cheapest economy class. We arrived at our destination 40 min early, which for a 15+ hour flight is a great bonus. The boarding seemed a bit "loose", but got us boarded on time, and the plane was off exactly @ 0:30 hrs.

The airport didn‘t give me the ticket. I called customer service to ask for a refund but they kept giving me a perfunctory response and refused to refund me.

The flight was delayed hours and most flights from CS are always delayed. Plane was efficient and got us home but not the best food and no entertainment system at all.

Not good - chair back could not move back for premium economy. Not worth the price

The back of the chair - premium economy could not move back - not worth the price

It was okay. Boarding the staff made you feel rushed like we were late or something

It was great. The staff were so nice and helpful the food was great and they always made sure I was okay. As a foreigner I was worried about the language barrier but it was absolutely no issues. I highly recommend

Super surprised with the entire experience. Business class is incredible. Flight attendants around the world could learn customer service from these people. Simply fabulous experience all the way around.

Pillow and blanket are dirty. My son got multiple bites during the flight

Flight was on time. My group paid for seat’s so that us four can be seated next to each other. We all got separated. We all got middle seats, which made it more difficult to be able to get up and stretch or use the restroom. We tried talking to the employees at China Eastern and they were of no help. We will not be taking this flight or recommend this route to others in the future. Also I will be contacting customer service on how I can get our money back for paying for assigned seats.

China eastern was fantastic. I had read so many bad reviews that had made me nervous. However, I found that the flight attendant’s, and customer service check in etc. etc. was excellent. I had no problems. I would fly with them again!

Excellent! I had read some negative reviews but I found out that it was not all was not true! The staff was courteous and helpful. The flight take off and landing was nice & easy. The food was good! I asked for a second and I got it easily and without an attitude! All was wonderful!

Excellent experience however older aeroplanes used by China Eastern Airlines.

The crew were excellent, service amazing, blankets and pillow good, cabin temperature perfect, the flight on time, food was unusual selection however plentiful, price for tickets unbeatable through Kayak. Older aeroplanes used by China Eastern was the only down side.

Delay in off-boarding due to customs at SFO... pilot announcement should have come earlier so passengers don't clog aisles.

Better good than most, if not all European airlines. If you’re stuck in an economy seat anyways, China Eastern is a good choice because of shorter flight time, being able to overfly Russia

The temperature of the plane cabin is too hot. Sweat and uncomfortable. Also my food tray was broken down drinks fall off
