Is it safe to book a morning VietJet connecting flight from Nha Trang to Hanoi if my international flight departs the same evening?
Based on 1 discussions with 3 participants · Last activity: 8 days ago
TL;DR
There is real risk: VietJet frequently delays flights, and a 12:30 departure from Nha Trang with a 19:45 international flight from Hanoi leaves very little buffer. Weather delays are common.
