Vietnam Airports
There are international airports in many of Vietnam's top destinations — Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang, Phu Quoc Island, and Con Dao Island. Hanoi and Saigon have the largest number of long-distance connections, while Da Nang and Phu Quoc are great for nearby destinations in Asia.
The South
Ho Chi Minh City's Tan Son Nhat International Airport is Vietnam's biggest airport, with the best connections to destinations outside of Asia. Many flight routes will pass through this southern airport from the Americas and Europe, even when the final destination is in the north or central regions.
It is located just 4 miles north of District 1, the center of Ho Chi Minh City, and is thus inexpensive to reach by taxi. Terminal 1 is the domestic terminal and Terminal 2 has most international departures.
Central Coast and Caves
Hue's Phu Bai International Airport is located 9 miles from the new city, on the South side of the Perfume River. Domestically, it is serviced by short, direct flights from Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh, and, less frequently, Da Lat. Currently, there are no direct international services to Hue.
From Hue, you can visit the coastal city of Da Nang within 2 hours and the cultural city of Hoi An in a further 45 minutes.
Central Coast and Caves
Da Nang Airport is a fast-growing international airport, connecting Central Vietnam to a growing number of Asian destinations and further afield. Many travelers pass through, from Hanoi in the north and Saigon in the south, to reach destinations like Hue and Hoi An, as well as Da Nang itself.
The airport is very close to Da Nang city center and the nearby beach resorts, and just 18 miles from Hoi An. Taking a taxi is the easiest way to reach the airport.
