"It was truly obnoxious"
N Parton (United States)
✅ Trip Verified | A real bait and switch. Cheap tickets turn into a nightmare at the gate. As soon as they announced the plane was ready for boarding a “team” arrived with two luggage scales and forced everyone to weigh their carry-on and other personal items (their weights combined could not exceed 7kg). My bags were 11kg and the team leader immediately yelled at me. Was incredible. She was yelling before I had a chance to say anything. No employee anywhere would feel they could get away with that how unless they were trained to do so and given authority from management above. We were leaving on an international flight and had no leverage to say anything. She took my boarding pass and immediately I was hostage to pay $75 for an extra 3kg in my combine bags. The whole experience was traumatizing and I’m not exaggerating in saying this. There were many real confused and upset people including a woman broken down in tears. The “team” would simply say it was not their problem and to pay or not get on the plane. The lady had a handful of boarding passes she had collected and was running about to get as many as she possibly could to collect the money after. It was truly obnoxious. I will never trust and fly with this airline again.

"seats were not comfortable"
Ambuj Saxena (India)
✅ Trip Verified | We were flying vietjet air after a pleasing tour of Vietnam. For a 5 hour international flight, the seats were not comfortable. There was no screen to show trip, no headphones for music, no screen for movies etc. Frankly, it didn't feel like an international carrier. There was no legroom too. Besides the toilets did not refilled with soap and when I asked for soap, they poured a bit on my hands and later placed the bottle inside the toilet thereby making it inconvenient and unhygienic for all travelers. I would never recommend Vietjet Air due to its lack of professional services and indifferent attitude of the stewards.

"no customer service at al"
Des Raj Chawla (India)
Not Verified |
Very bad customer service. Actually no customer service at all. I am trying to get them to respond for last 6-7 days to reschedule the flight, but no one will answer their call center for so many times. If you are very lucky they will answer one time, but they will just say email the head office in Vietnam. And of course nobody responds to the emails. I have sent 3-4 reminders as well. I have tweeted them too but nothing. All ticket money gone to waste.

"Discrimination against tourists"
C Dalteira (Portugal)
✅ Trip Verified | Discrimination against tourists. The guy in front of us in check 8n has 12kilos nag and just pick up the bag and leave. We had 10kg each and to pay excess baggage. Also, the girl at the counter didn't speak English except "excess luggage" and "pay". We had to go to a different counter to pay for the luggage where we were made fun of and then came back to the first counter ... terrible service, they are desperate for the extra buck, fly AirAsia instead.

"staff were indifferent"
Malina Andronenkova (Estonia)
Not Verified | I received two emails beforehand each of them telling me my flight has been delayed. No good reason was given. When I arrived at the airport, the flight was delayed once again. The staff were indifferent and did not seem apologetic at all. The reason why their tickets are so cheap is because they are an awful airline. Be warned! Don’t fly with VietJet.

"Very satisfied with the flight"
Vladlena Senkina (Thailand)
Not Verified | I took VietJet Air to Phuket and while I was putting my luggage up to the cabin. As usual the clumsy me ended up dropping my headphones. Honestly I was starting to panic as it's the 2nd pair I lost this year. However, one of the flight attendants handled the situation very well and told me he would help me find it. After a few minutes he found my headphones. I am so satisfied by his attentiveness and will to assist. It's always the little things that counts for me. Very satisfied with the flight today.

"hefty fees for my two checked in bags"
1 reviews Yue Fang (United States)
Not Verified | Worst flight, I will never fly again! They charged hefty fees for my two checked in bags. Air ticket is not cheap. No food or drink in the air. Bad attitude staff. Flight delayed for two hours. Waited for luggage another 1+ hour. Just terrible!

"well-known for delayed flights"
K Tang (Australia)
Not Verified | This is my second time flying with them. The scheduled departure time is 12pm but not until 4pm. Vietjet is well-known for delayed flights. Never try Vietjet if you have already booked your trips/tours that need you to show up on time. The best is not to fly with them. You will regret.
