VIE: Vietnam Airlines International Lounge @ Noi Bai International Airport

Level 2 (Near Gate 28), Noi Bai International Airport, Hanoi, Vietnam
Daily: 6.00am - 2.00am

Vietnam Airlines' lounge is accessible to Business and/or First Class passengers of the local flag carrier, SkyTeam partner airlines, as well as other airlines such as Cathay Pacific and Singapore Airlines. Given that international flights have now been moved to the new terminal, I'm not too sure what has happened to this particular lounge; perhaps it's used as a domestic lounge?

The moment my BFF and I entered the lounge, we were greeted by the friendly staff. Placed on the front desk were lots sweets and snacks.

The lounge isn't that big with many seats crammed in the middle. Those at the perimeter of the lounge are more spaced apart.

Thankfully, we managed to get a window seat away from the crowd.

We wouldn't want to miss the food and drinks offered, of course. Do click here to find out what we had prior to our flight back to Singapore.

The fruit slices were pretty much untouched when I was there.

Instant noodle (including Vietnamese pho) with toppings, anyone?

The washroom is basic, but clean. Honestly I can't remember whether there are shower facilities there.

That was my first time spotting a Uni Air plane despite having visited Taiwan in the past. Has anyone tried flying with the regional subsidiary of EVA Air before?

The lounge isn't memorable, but certainly adequate for me as I'm not a fussy person. Haha...
