Which airport do you fly into for Hoi An?

What is the name of the airport in Hoi An?

Hoi An? Airport? No own airport. Right, right, Da Nang.

• Da Nang International Airport (DAD). Yep.

30 km…ish? North. Always north, it feels like. Taxi. Shuttle. Private car. Options, huh? I took a taxi once. Expensiiiiive! Shoulda haggled more.

• Distance: Roughly 30 km (19 miles).

Shuttle is okay but slow. Private car is comfy, if you got the cash. Like, who am I kidding? The bus. Should’ve just taken the bus. So obvious.

• Transportation: Taxi, Shuttle, Private Car.

Da Nang! Makes sense, it’s way bigger. Still weird Hoi An doesn’t have one, like, a little airstrip. Could land my own plane… If I had a plane.

• Nearest City: Da Nang.

Airports are loud. I bet Hoi An residents are glad they dodged that bullet. Bullet… ugh, bad choice of words. I need coffee.

So, you fly into Da Nang. That’s it. Then… Hoi An adventure begins. Right.

What is the airport code for Hoi An Vietnam?

DAD. Da Nang. It’s always DAD. That airport code… it feels heavy, somehow. Like carrying a suitcase full of unspoken things.

Thirty kilometers. A long drive, in the dark. Especially after a flight. Thinking about those long, empty roads. The streetlights are blurry. I remember that specifically.

Hoi An. The name itself is a whisper. A beautiful, bittersweet whisper. The memories there… they’re sharp, vivid.

• The lanterns. So many lanterns. Burning bright in the night.
• The scent of incense, clinging to everything. It’s almost unbearable sometimes.
• The river. The slow, quiet flow of the river, reflecting everything back.

I miss it. Terribly. The airport… it’s just a transit point. But it’s connected to so much more. It’s attached to those memories, you see. To those nights in Hoi An. My last trip was in 2023. A summer trip. The heat was almost too much. Too much of everything, really. I should go back. Someday. Maybe. Someday.

How far is Da Nang Airport from Hoi An?

Ugh. Da Nang airport to Hoi An. Forever. Felt like forever, anyway. Hot, sticky July 2023. My stupid flip-flop broke right outside the airport. Great start. Grabbed a taxi. Should’ve booked Grab. Cost a bomb. Driver didn’t speak English. Me, trying to pronounce “Hoi An Ancient Town.” Disaster. Showed him the address on my phone. Finally. AC blasting in the cab, thankfully. Still felt like an oven though. Traffic. Motorbikes everywhere. Zooming past. Insane. Then, rice paddies. Water buffalo. Huh. Different. Finally, Hoi An. Took like, I dunno, 45 minutes? Maybe an hour. Roads were rough in spots. So bumpy. My bad back. Ugh. Never again. Next time, flying straight to Hanoi. Lesson learned.

• Distance: Roughly 30km
• Time: 45-60 mins, depends on traffic
• Route: Took the DT607, think that’s what it’s called
• Cost: Overpaid. Like, way too much. Should’ve used Grab
• Transport: Taxi. Mistake.
• Date: July 2023

My back still hurts thinking about it. Seriously.

How much does it cost from Danang Airport to Hoi An?

Danang to Hoi An? Think of it as a scenic, albeit slightly pricey, rollercoaster ride. Xanh SM, Vietnam’s electric taxi pioneers, are your ticket.

380,000 VND gets you a one-way, standard jaunt. Round trip? A slightly more extravagant 494,000 VND. Splurge, darling, you deserve it. It’s like comparing a perfectly acceptable bowl of pho to a five-star pho experience.

Consider these factors:

• Electric Luxury: You’re supporting eco-friendly travel. Pat yourself on the back.
• Price: That’s roughly $16-$21 USD, depending on the fluctuating dong-dollar tango.
• Alternatives: Grab or other ride-sharing apps might be cheaper, but less… green.
• My experience: I once haggled a cyclo driver down to 100,000 VND. Don’t try that with Xanh SM. They’re not your uncle.

This year (2024), this price is fairly standard for airport transfers of this kind. It’s less than a fancy cocktail at a Hoi An beach bar, though.

I prefer the electric option myself, though the cyclo ride was a memorable experience. Purely anecdotal, obviously.
