Etsi halvat lennot: Vietnam Airlines

Great service, awful food

Plussat: The crew was really polite, nice and helpful, a good change for someone that uses Chinese airlines

Miinukset: The food was really dreadful and I am used to the Chinese airlines standards so the bar is really low. Beef or pork as options, the meat was really bad

Aligned with Cathay Pacific

Plussat: Extra leg room in the emergency row. Plane was not packed with people so easy on and off. This was a flight from HCMC to Hong Kong And we were then going to get our bags in HKG and recheck them to SFO. BUT since Vietnam air and Cathay are connected we were able to check our bags all the way to SFO!!'

Miinukset: Food was average

Plussat: The crew was very attentive and nice

Miinukset: The seats are very close together. It's hard to get comfortable

Plussat: Everything was alright. Except I got the last seat of the plane where I couldn't adjust my seat

Miinukset: The food was a bit salty this time.

Good flight, minor glitches

Plussat: The flight on an A350 wide body was uneventful. I was in the "Premium Economy" section, which is sold as regular "Economy" for domestic flights. Excellent seating 2+4+2. The food was OK, not much to write home about, but they skipped coffee and tea because of turbulence (hardly perceptible).

Miinukset: Boarding process in HAN was very confusing: there was a change of gate announcement just when boarding was to start. Everybody went like crazy through the airport terminal looking for a Gate that does not exist. Followed by a counter-announcement. And then being bussed to the aircraft. People came on board up to the last minute... Arrival in SGN crazy for a different reason. All 300-some passengers were bussed again. Just that the ladders were not ready, and then whoever drove could not adjust them, and then the busses were not ready either. 25 minutes from landing to the luggage belts. Vietnamese airports need to work on their their procedures.
