What the community said

The flight there takes about 6 hours, while the return flight is overnight — you can sleep through it. Landing around 6am lets you check into the hotel and go straight to breakfast without losing a day.

~6 hours flight

The trip there takes about 6 hours, and the return flight lands at night, so you'll already be sleeping at the hotel by then.

It's better to book flights and hotel separately: time your flight from Ho Chi Minh City to Phu Quoc to match hotel check-in, and schedule the return flight for the evening to use the full last day.
