Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City Destination Reviews

Very nice and fast personal check-in
Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City, flight Economy, VietJet Air (Công ty Cổ phần Hàng không VietJet), Feb 19, 2023
YA
When we tried to check in on the ”self check in machine” , it said that our booking was cancelled and that was a source of big stress for us, as we had planned and booked all the hotel and activities in Saigon .. The employees couldn’t find our tickets neither, as if they were not used to 12Go Asia e-tickets .. but at last the customer service employee was able to help us and print the right ticket that the other employees could use to check us in… we booked many Times with 12Go Asia and it was the first time we faced this problem ..
