Flights
We booked the flight together. From Puerto Princesa to Manila for a total of 110$ CAD
and From Manila to Hanoi for 255$ CAD. We never booked multiple flight for one
destination separately and we don’t do the itinerary on our own. Normally the search
engine on the booking website are pretty solid and they do a way better job then us. But
this time it was much cheaper booking two different plane tickets on our own. For once,
our flight left around 3h30 PM and we arrived in vietnam around midnight (witch kind of
bugged us for the visa since when you arrived at midnight for which date do you plan
your visa ? (Here more information about visa in
Vietnam)
Puerto princesa to manilla Philippines
We boarded the plane at the Puerto Princesa airport which was pretty easy since it’s a
pretty small airport. You won’t get lost and you won’t wait at security! The flight was
pretty standard and lasted 1h30. No amenities unless you paid for it. We did manage to
get emergency seat for that flight which was pretty nice! For some reason both of us got
really thirsty during the flight. It did the same thing in the plane to get to vietnam,
we are guessing it the lovely misst they spray on you for bugs that dehydrated us.
Manilla to Hanoi Vietnam
We arrived at the domestic airport and then transferred to the international airport by
bus. (wich cost us 5 PHP.) we then passed security and waited for our plane. Again
nothing much to say. There was no amenities and we didn't manage to get emergency seat
on that one. It's kind of a 50/50 chance most of the time, but we always ask. We
left the philippines at 22h00 for an 2h30 hour flight and arrived in vietnam around
midnight. Then we proceeded to withdraw money and dealt with custom.
