      If you're referring to travelling soon as opposed to a sale, then I doubt it. March/April is the cherry blossom season as far as I can remember?

        Missed the Airasia; my bad. Having said that it being from IWTF isn't any different from it being from Jetstar.

    I visited Saigon for the first time last year. Loved it and would return in a heartbeat to see Northern Vietnam but cant get there this year. If you are available on these dates, 100% go!

      Avoid Hanoi, even the locals in the south avoid it. The rest of the places up along the coast are great though. Also if you have the choice between a "sleeping" bus or a train, take the train.

      • Davros on 07/02/2016 - 21:30

        Agree, south up to Hue is great.
        As for the train and bus comment dont waste your time on either and fly.

      • Red-jane on 07/02/2016 - 21:34

        Why avoid Hanoi? I have not heard of locals in the South avoid Hanoi either. Are you sure it's not just a minor of them?

          Been there myself, south is a lot better in terms of people. The north still hold resentment and go far out of their way to scam tourists. Experienced this first hand and had others relay anecdotes. But again, downvote like sheep.

          @BoneyMalone: wasn't me who downvoted though. Scams happen anywhere, I am actually Vietnamese and I got scammed myself everytime , everywhere I went to in Hue. It just happened to you in Hanoi. Sorry about that though but Hanoi is so much better than Saigon for me. :P

          Yeah there is nothing wrong with Hanoi. In fact many locals from the South travel there to work in construction. They are not doing a very good job at avoiding the place.
          The only downside I can think of regarding the place is that it's not as clean as it once was. There is dust everywhere, but that's largely due to the amount of construction that's been going on the past 5-10 years.

          You are just as likely to get scammed elseware in Vietnam as a tourist.

      I love Hanoi. I had the opposite experience and found the locals in hanoi to be a lot friendlier than the south. (My family is from the south)

        lots of Visa info on Ozbargain, and also 'Google'. Go via their search functions. There is a lot of info that you need to absorb. Re sale period, go to the web sites and punch in your dates etc and see what you find. Number of seats available and price is often very fluid (a moment by moment proposition)

      • juventino on 07/02/2016 - 21:09

        they neg voted you because you seem lazy. Punch in the details on the website and see it for yourself. It takes approximately 72.78 seconds to complete. 121.32 seconds if you have fat fingers and indecisive :)

        • llllllllllllll on 07/02/2016 - 21:33

          Double check your math. Mine results in 72.79 and 121.33.

    • DrStinge on 07/02/2016 - 19:04

      For the Visa I recommend getting it before-hand; you can get some form of online-visa then complete the rest in Vietnam but doing the process fully in Australia (whilst more expensive) is a lot smoother.

          Not sure what fees are now, but you might want to check with a Vietnamese travel agent and get it all done before you leave Australia. These travel agents often have bulk orders and will do for you even if you don't buy travel with them. Saves you waiting on landing, and potentially paying more. Check prices. Used to be $70 to have it done here,includes postage to Canberra .

        my mum was told by the embassy last week when she got her visas that they seemed cheaper online because it doesn't tell you about the charges at the airport after the online part. I'd do it in Australia if possible - the less interaction with airport personnel (and potential for "extra fees") the better.

        • Peck on 07/02/2016 - 23:48

          Visa on arrival are not 'extra' fees, they are set fees. It depends whether 2 trips to the Consulate and spending maybe an extra $50 or so is better than about 1 hour wait at the Visa on arrival counter.

          @peck:

          If you're white, then set fees.

          If you have Viet heritage, they'll attempt to get extra fees for "coffee" for the boys. No coffee, you wait.

    Be wary of eDreams they don't have the best track record.

    If it's Jetstar, there is no Direct flights. :( Only Qantas and Viet Airlines do it. Wish Jetstar did a direct.

  • jekng on 08/02/2016 - 12:49

    Does anyone know whether Jetstar will match the Air Asia price for Perth to Ho Chi Minh? Reason why i prefer to fly Jetstar is the layover is in Singapore rather than KL. Thanks.

    • billdre on 08/02/2016 - 15:45

      Is it better to layover in Sing rather than KL? About our luggage or something else? Thanks

      • jekng on 09/02/2016 - 10:36

        Singapore airport is probably the best air port in the world and it is super comfortable, huge and has lots to see while the KL airport that Air Asia uses is the low cost one and is pretty dingy and uncomfortable.

      • andysa on 11/02/2016 - 15:13

        Last time I had a layover in KL it was with AirAsia, I'm guessing JetStar might be at the same discount terminal, and it was terrible. They were in the middle of rebuilding it, but I'd take Singapore any day over that.

        • Tuttifrutti on 14/02/2016 - 14:44

          The low cost terminal in kl has been rebuilt and is considerably much better than it was before. Recentlt traveled there with airasia. Though the terminal was huge and alot of walking betweem gates it can actually be compared to tiger terminal at melbourne. Plus the dutyfree shops were good.
