Cheap Flights from Ho Chi Minh City to Kochi Starting at $159

Tan Son Nhat International Airport (SGN) is Ho Chi Minh City’s main international gateway and a full-service hub handling most long-haul and regional flights, including major carriers and full-service Vietnamese airlines. Located roughly 6–10 km north of District 1, it can be reached by taxi or ride-hail in about 20–40 minutes depending on traffic, with fares typically ranging from local-route prices up to moderate app-based rates; public bus options and airport shuttles can take 30–60 minutes for lower cost. Pros: convenient proximity to the city center and a wide choice of airlines and services. Cons: can be busy and subject to heavy traffic and occasional delays at peak times. Can Tho International Airport (VCA) is a smaller regional airport that can be used as an alternative for southern Mekong Delta access and some domestic connections; it’s not a primary international hub for Ho Chi Minh City but can be a budget-friendly option for certain routes. The airport sits about 170–180 km southwest of Ho Chi Minh City, so transfer times are typically 3–4 hours by car or bus; domestic flights to Tan Son Nhat are occasionally available and can reduce ground travel. Pros: quieter terminals and fewer crowds. Cons: substantially farther from the city and limited flight frequency compared with Tan Son Nhat.

Cochin International Airport (COK) is Kerala’s main international gateway and typically handles a mix of full-service and regional carriers, plus several budget airlines serving the Gulf and domestic points. It’s located about 25 km north of Kochi city center in Nedumbassery, so travel times can range from roughly 40–60 minutes by road depending on traffic. Transport options usually include app taxis and prepaid airport cabs (fares commonly falling in a moderate range), limited local buses, and occasional hotel shuttles for booked guests. The terminal is generally modern and comfortable with decent amenities, though peak times can be busy; its distance from downtown can add time and expense compared with inner-city options.
