Our trip began on a high note but took a downturn when our flight was delayed by three hours due to a typhoon over Ho Chi Min city. But that was just the beginning .....
The flight itself was ok despite sitting next to the toilet. Just as we were coming to our first stop we were informed the weather had worsened. And we would have to fly to Danang and wait it out.
After a very long wait, very little information and some Australians getting very hot under the collar we finally flew out heading for Ho Chi .
Then the fun really began. The people at the airport had no idea who we were and how to deal with us. We got shifted to domestic and yet again nobody wanted to know us. We hung around domestic because it hadn't even opened yet, and we hung and we hung. After about 2 hours we were shifted to a new counter and the staff appeared. We were told we would be leaving on the 8 o'clock flight for Hanoi. Hooray!!!!
But wait there is more yes you guessed it only 1 seat left so we all booked on the 9.30 flight and arrive at Hanoi at last.... 15 hours late.
I never want to see another queue for a long time.





Terrible start! BUT it's going to be so much better now...and did I see a saggy bag in one of those photos?? xx
