Overnight layover guide. Sleeping facilities in the public zone or boarding area
Please note that some published services and schedules may be subject to change. If the idea is to spend the night in the public area, consider a plan B in case the stay inside the airport is only allowed for those who are about to board.
Spending the night at the airport
Ho Chi Minh Airport has been recently renovated, and it is common to see many passengers waiting overnight for their flights. However, it is not one of the most comfortable places to rest.
Where to rest: The first floor of Terminal 2 is a quiet place, although there are not many seats, while the third level offers more benches but also more noise. On the second floor, you will find some rest areas with comfortable benches, and you can also use the seating in food outlets. There are VIP lounges in both terminals, which provide greater comfort and privacy. Additionally, sleeping cabins are available in Terminal 2. There are no hotels within the airport grounds, but some nearby accommodations offer shuttle services.
Baggage: A left-luggage service is available in Terminal 2 from 7:00 am to 11:00 pm.
Eating and drinking: Some of the food outlets inside the terminals are open 24 hours. However, note that prices are in US dollars and tend to be quite high. Drinking fountains are hard to find, so it is advisable to bring your own water.
Restrooms: Free showers are available in the boarding area of Terminal 2.
Wi-Fi: Free and unlimited service.
