Since the new domestic Terminal 3 (T3) opened, airport pickup has become harder to read: taxis use one level, contract cars wait somewhere else, and drivers may stop at the curb for only a few minutes. Add a delayed flight and an unfamiliar fare, and it is easy to lose an hour.
Nhieuxe handles Tan Son Nhat airport pickup and drop-off with a private car and driver, in sizes from a 4-seat sedan to a 45-seat coach. You pay a fixed one-way fare for your area, not by the hour, and a delayed flight means a free change of pickup time. Tell us your terminal and flight number when you book, and we arrange the meeting point with you. The airport (SGN) is about 8 km from the city center.

What the price includes
Each fare covers fuel, the driver, toll and expressway fees, and passenger insurance. It does not cover VAT, meals and lodging for the driver on trips with special requests, or extras you add. VAT invoices are available on request.
Extras you may need
- Name board at the arrival gate: VND 100,000 (about $4).
- Waiting time at the airport: VND 100,000 per hour for 4 to 16 seats (about $4), VND 200,000 per hour for 29 to 45 seats (about $8).
- Late-night and weekend pickups may carry a surcharge. It will be listed in your quote before you confirm.
- Traffic jams in the city do not add to the fare.
Tan Son Nhat terminals: which one will you use
Tan Son Nhat has three terminals. T2 is the international terminal. T1 is the older domestic terminal. T3 is the newer domestic terminal, about 1 km from T1 and T2, so it is not a comfortable walk with luggage. Domestic airlines are split between T1 and T3, so check the terminal printed on your ticket before you tell your driver where to go.
If you connect between terminals, a free airport shuttle bus runs between T1, T2 and T3 from 04:30 to 00:30, about every 15 to 20 minutes, and the ride takes 10 to 15 minutes. A private car is faster when you are late or carrying a lot of bags.
Airport pickup at Terminal 3 (arrivals)
At T3, the arrivals hall is on level 2 and the departures hall is on level 3. Taxis and ride-hailing cars collect passengers from lanes on the ground level. Contract and commercial vehicles are handled differently: they do not stop at the terminal curb to wait, and instead use the airport parking building, so the meeting point is arranged in advance. Drivers at the curb pickup zones are expected to stay no more than about 3 minutes.
For this reason, give us your terminal, flight number and arrival time when you book, and we confirm where to meet before you land. If your flight is delayed, we move the pickup time at no charge.
Airport drop-off (departures)
For a drop-off to T3, cars deliver passengers to the departures hall on level 3. Heavy traffic builds on the roads to the airport between 7:00 and 9:00 in the morning and between 16:30 and 19:30 in the evening, so leave earlier if your trip falls in those windows. A fixed fare means you do not pay more if the road is slow.
How to book your airport pickup or drop-off
Step 1: Send your details
Message or call with your arrival or departure time, flight number, terminal, number of guests, number of suitcases, and drop-off address.
Step 2: Book early enough
Book at least 2 hours ahead for 4-seat and 7-seat cars, and at least 6 hours ahead for 16 seats and above. Guests coming from other provinces should book 4 to 6 hours ahead.
Step 3: Confirm and pay the deposit
After you agree on the quote, pay a 25% online deposit by bank transfer or cash. Nhieuxe confirms your driver at least 30 minutes before departure.
Step 4: Meet your driver
Your driver is ready at the agreed time and place. The rest of the fare is paid as agreed in your contract.
Flight delays, changes and cancellations
- Flight delayed or cancelled: send a photo of the airline notice and the pickup time is changed for free.
- Changing the pickup time: tell us at least 2 hours ahead. It is free if the new time is available.
- Cancelling at least 4 hours before pickup: no charge.
- Cancelling less than 4 hours before pickup: 30% of the trip fare is deducted.
Which vehicle should you choose
| Group | Vehicle | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 1 to 3 guests | 4-seat or 7-seat car | Lowest fare, enough room for suitcases |
| 4 to 9 guests | 9-seat limousine | One vehicle for the whole group, with reclining seats |
| 10 to 16 guests | 16-seat van | Seats a larger family or team |
| Over 16 guests | 29-seat bus or 45-seat coach | Tour groups and events |
For a family of six with four suitcases, a 9-seat limousine at about $58 works out to under $10 per person each way, compared with two separate cars.
