Vietnam Airlines (VN/HVN) — full-service carrier from Vietnam, based at Hanoi Noi Bai (HAN), member of SkyTeam.About Vietnam Airlines
Vietnam Airlines is the country's flag carrier and a SkyTeam member since 2010. It operates a modern wide-body fleet of Boeing 787s and Airbus A350s on long-haul routes, with A321s across the region, and holds a four-star service rating.
Unlike its low-cost compatriot VietJet, it sells inclusive fares — checked baggage, meals and seat selection come with the ticket.
Vietnam Airlines flights from Beijing Daxing
Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City from Daxing, the same two cities VietJet serves, flown as a full-service product. For passengers connecting onward within Vietnam or to SkyTeam partners, the through-ticketing and baggage transfer make it the simpler choice.
Vietnam Airlines flies from PKX to 2 destinations:
- Hanoi
- Ho Chi Minh City
Route lists change with the summer and winter schedules, and frequencies change more often than that. For the flights operating today, check the live arrivals and departures boards.
Planning your trip
At Beijing Daxing, Vietnam Airlines checks in at Level 4 departures (international). Check-in closes 30 minutes before departure on domestic flights and 45 minutes before departure on international ones — Daxing is a large building, and the walk from check-in to a far gate is a real part of your timing.
- SkyTeam membership means through-checked bags and lounge access with China Eastern and partners at PKX.
- Included checked baggage often closes most of the price gap against the low-cost option.
- Hanoi's Noi Bai is around 45 minutes from the old quarter — budget for the transfer.
Getting to the airport takes planning of its own: the Daxing Airport Express and the intercity railway are the fastest options from central Beijing, with taxis and private transfers as the door-to-door alternatives. The airport guide covers terminal layout, security and what is open landside.
