If I have a negative point, it's the air conditioning, which made me sick. Otherwise everything was fine.

Good trip but it was much too cold in the cabin, and it was impossible to lower it.

We were waiting in a transit bus for 30 minutes without the Vietjet staff telling us why. Very strange. The flight was also around 40 min late.

Interesting train ride….. we purchased 3 of the 1st class bunks and the forth bunk had a woman with her child and a huge box in the middle of the floor inside the room for 32 hours. We had no were to go but stand outside the room door in a narrow hallway for stretch our legs. We didn’t know that some trains have a small dining car that you can enjoy a little snack and stretch your legs, other wise your cooped up in the small 4 bed bunk room.

Train was very noisy. Was supposed to travel from Ho Chi Minh to Hanoi but got off at Danang and flew the rest of the journey due to train being very noisy and difficult to sleep.

Boarded the plane and the A/C was not turned on until after we were in the air which made it unbearable for a long time as we boarded early but departed later due to waiting for passengers.

Efficient, clean, easy and affordable. Great way to get from HCMC to Hanoi if you have the time. We took a 4 berth cabin with 2 adults and 2 children aged 3 and 5. Hot food served at every meal and toilets were usable.
