Hanoi Airport: How early should I arrive for my flight?
Ugh, Hanoi airport, right? I once almost missed my flight to Hue last October 27th, crazy stressful. Lesson learned: three hours for international, definitely.
Domestic? Two hours is pushing it. I’ve gotten away with less, but sweating bullets, totally not worth it. Online check-in helps tons. Saves you ages.
My friend, though, she arrived only an hour before her flight to Da Nang and missed it, so…yeah. Don’t be like her. She had to rebook, cost her $150 extra.
Basically, buffer time is your friend, especially at Noi Bai. Be safe, not sorry.
