As an international route, travellers need a valid passport and appropriate visa for the destination country. It's recommended to arrive at the airport at least 3 hours before departure for international flights.

Compare fares across all airlines on FareEagle to find the best deal. Prices fluctuate based on demand, seasonality, and how far in advance you book. Generally, booking 2-4 weeks ahead for domestic flights and 6-8 weeks for international routes gives the best value.

The following airlines operate regular services between Lucknow and Hanoi. Each airline offers different fare classes, baggage allowances, and onboard services.

Full-service international carriers typically include meals, checked baggage (20-30 kg), and in-flight entertainment. Compare the total cost including baggage on FareEagle — sometimes a full-service fare with included baggage is cheaper than a low-cost fare plus add-ons.

Many Indians travel from Lucknow to Hanoi for business, cultural exploration, and to experience Vietnam's natural beauty. Hanoi offers a blend of Southeast Asian charm and French-colonial architecture. Expect a vibrant city with bustling streets and delicious street food.

Best time to fly

The best time to visit Hanoi is during the spring (March to April) or autumn (September to November) when the weather is mild and pleasant. Avoid the summer months (May to August) due to high humidity and heavy rainfall. The Tet festival (Vietnamese Lunar New Year) in late January or early February is a colourful time to visit, but expect larger crowds and higher prices.

Getting from the airport to Hanoi

Noi Bai International Airport (HAN) is about 35 km from Hanoi city center. The Airport Bus 86 is a cheap and convenient option, costing around 30,000 VND. Taxis are readily available, costing approximately 300,000 to 400,000 VND to the city center.

Things to do in Hanoi

Explore the Old Quarter, with its narrow streets and traditional shops. Visit Hoan Kiem Lake and Ngoc Son Temple, a peaceful oasis in the city. See the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum and Museum, a historical landmark. Experience a traditional water puppet show at Thang Long Water Puppet Theatre.

Food to try

Try Pho, a flavorful noodle soup, a Vietnamese staple. Sample Banh Mi, a delicious baguette sandwich. Indulge in Egg Coffee, a unique Hanoi specialty.

Local tips

Be aware of your belongings in crowded areas, as petty theft can occur. Negotiate prices before taking a taxi or cyclo. Carry small denominations of Vietnamese Dong for easy transactions at local markets and street food stalls.
