Vijayawada (VGA) has limited international reach, so journeys start with a domestic feeder. IndiGo and Air India connect VGA to Hyderabad and Chennai, where you join IndiGo, Vietjet Air, Vietnam Airlines, or Thai AirAsia/Thai Airways via Bangkok. IndiGo flies direct Hyderabad/Chennai–SGN seasonally. Full-service combinations keep one PNR with through-checked baggage; low-cost pairings are cheaper but may require a self-transfer at the hub.
The quickest realistic path is Vijayawada–Hyderabad–Ho Chi Minh City, roughly 8–9 hours including layover. Chennai and Bangkok routings add time but expand choice:
See our Hyderabad to Ho Chi Minh City guide for the main leg.
Tan Son Nhat (SGN) is only about 7 km from District 1, so the transfer into central Saigon is a 20–40 minute taxi or Grab ride. Use metered Vinasun or Mai Linh taxis at the rank, or book Grab at the app pickup point. A typical fare to District 1 is 170,000–220,000 VND; city bus 109 costs under 20,000 VND. Pick up a tourist SIM and draw VND from arrivals ATMs before leaving.
Full-service Vietnam Airlines and Air India economy generally include 25–30 kg checked plus 7 kg cabin. Low-cost carriers — Vietjet, AirAsia, IndiGo international — sell the base seat only, so add 20–30 kg if you plan to shop. Because a Vijayawada feeder and a separate international ticket do not auto-transfer bags, recheck at Hyderabad or Chennai and keep a 3–4 hour connection buffer.
Round-trip economy from Vijayawada (via Hyderabad) to Ho Chi Minh City typically ranges ₹28,000–₹48,000 depending on season, carrier and lead time. The May–September monsoon shoulder is cheapest; Christmas–New Year, Diwali/Sankranti and the April–May break push fares higher. Booking 6–10 weeks ahead and flying mid-week usually keeps the fare in the lower half of the band.
Ho Chi Minh City offers French-colonial avenues, the War Remnants Museum, Ben Thanh Market and rooftop bars, plus day trips to the Cu Chi tunnels and Mekong Delta. It is affordable and vegetarian-friendly, with Indian and South-Indian eateries around Pham Ngu Lao, and an easy launchpad to Phu Quoc and Da Nang beaches. Costs are low enough to make a longer first overseas trip comfortable.
Indian passport holders need a visa for Vietnam. The simplest is the official e-visa, applied online for about US$25, valid up to 90 days and usually issued in around 3 working days.
