Try this bro -Vietnam Airlines definitely made a great job: Plenty of choices for food during lunch and breakfast. Excellent meals: So much tasty food. Diverse kinds of drinks, especially liquors; delicious cocktails. Very comfortable seat which could become flat-bed.

Flat bed...That's their biz class for Boeing 787 and A350 iirc haven't taken their a330

For short distance flight... It's not true on the choices of meals. Only two types.

Drink choices yes.
Seat yes very comfortable

Ask your hotel to help you book a car to Bana Hills. Takes 30 mins and cost 500k for 2 ways. The driver will wait for your to finish the tour. Reached Bana Hills buy a ticket and go in. Cost 700k each.

1 - Can anyone advise me on how to read address?

Assuming I wanna head to Tây ninh, how do I tell the grab driver that I want to go if I'm staying in a hotel at hcmc? Is grab the best recommended app if I wanna travel to there?

2 - What's a nice and comfortable hotel to stay at over in hcmc? Something that is preferably non discriminatory against local Vietnamese in case I decide to bring them over for a staycation?

Many thanks in advance!!

Usually it's Unit Number then Street name, followed by Zone, District, City, Province, Vietnam

For South Vietnam like in hcmc

If you stay in a small lane

There will be Hem
Example: Hẻm Thái Văn Lung, Bến Nghé, Quận 1, Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam

But in the north like Hanoi
It's So
Example: Số 14N2, ngách 15 Ngõ 230 Lạc Trung, Thanh Lương, Hai Bà Trưng, Hà Nội, Vietnam

If you're buying a ticket directly from Vietnam Airlines' website, then there's no problem. Unlike some other carriers that charge a seat selection fee, Vietnam Airlines lets you pick your seat during the booking process.

For advanced seat selection, Vn Airline charges a fee for Super Lite and Lite.

This is because these two categories of air tickets are the cheapest.

Hi experts!
Was planning a trip to Hanoi for 6 days in Feb. Please help me as I’m clueless and no one I know has been to Hanoi.
1. Where to stay? Would prefer places that has 24/7 food and relatively safer with Malls nearby?
2. Is 6 days too much?
3. Grab is not recommended? Would taxis there be safe to take?
4. Should I plan to stay in Halong Bay?
5. What activities should we do? Saw some cooking classes on Klook any advice?

It’s just me and my bf. I would love to cover almost everything there. It’s like a one time off trip.

5 nights overkill? Open to staying elsewhere also. Pricing is sad for 4 and 5 nights

You can consider to fly to da nang first and then go to Hoi An, spend two days there and then 3 days in danang, chill
