Tan Son Nhat (SGN) is Ho Chi Minh City’s main international gateway and typically serves as the primary hub for full-service carriers and many regional airlines, with a steady mix of low-cost operators. It lies about 6–8 km north of District 1, with city-center transfers by taxi or ride-hail usually taking 20–40 minutes depending on traffic; public buses and airport shuttles can take longer but are cheaper. Expect fares to vary: taxis and ride-hails commonly range from modest to mid-tier for Vietnam, while buses are very economical. Pros: convenient location and extensive route options; cons: congestion and variable transfer times during peak hours. Can Gio and other secondary airfields are mainly small or military-adjacent facilities and typically do not handle regular commercial international flights for Ho Chi Minh City; for most travelers they’re not relevant for passenger itineraries. For budget-focused flyers, domestic low-cost carriers usually concentrate operations at Tan Son Nhat rather than separate distant airports, so you’ll likely route through SGN even for cheaper fares. Transfers to the city from peripheral landing strips can be limited, with fewer scheduled shuttles and longer taxi journeys, making them less convenient for tourists seeking predictable, quick access to central districts.
