Asked by VB · 10 months ago
We have a flight from Hanoi airport to Da Nang at 3PM. Can we reach the airport back in time using private car service once the cruise ends?
1 answerAAnswered by Iris · 10 months ago
Dear VB, If you opt for a direct transfer to the airport by private car immediately after the cruise ends, you would likely be dropped off between 2:00 PM and 2:30 PM. This timeframe might be too tight for you to complete check-in and security procedures and make your departure on time. It is generally recommended to arrive at the airport at least two hours before a domestic flight. Please let us know if you have any further questions or if there's anything else we can assist you with. Yours sincerely, Iris (Ms.)

Please let us know if you have any further questions or specific preferences. Best regards, Iris
