Other Options for Airport Transfers from Major Airports in Vietnam

SHUTTLE BUSES

With the increasing quality of service, shuttle buses have become a popular choice of airport transportation

If you do not have much luggage or carry-on and want to travel economically, the shuttle bus is a good choice for you. Depending on the airport and city you’ve landed in, the prices for shuttle buses might be different, but they usually range from 10,000 – 50,000 VND per trip.

  • Pros: cheap and convenient, some buses can drop you off directly at the hotel per request.
  • Cons: the buses run on a fixed schedule typically from 5:30 AM – 9 PM, so if you arrive at the airport too early or too late, it is out of the question.
