Distance & Actual Travel Times
| Detail | Vo Chi Cong Coastal Route | National Hwy 1A Route |
|---|---|---|
| Distance | ~30 km | ~28 km |
| Normal traffic | 40–50 min | 50–60 min |
| Peak hours | 55–70 min | 65–80 min |
| Scenery | Beautiful My Khe beach views | Urban areas, many traffic lights |
| Default | ✅ Driver’s first choice | Used if coastal route is congested |
[!TIP] Faifo Express defaults to the Vo Chi Cong coastal route — shorter, more scenic, fewer traffic lights. Drivers proactively switch to National Hwy 1A if they detect traffic congestion.
Da Nang Airport Transfer Rates
[!NOTE] Prices below are per trip — already include tolls and road fees. Standard luggage (1 suitcase + 1 bag per person) has no extra charge.
| Vehicle Type | Max Passengers | One Way | Round Trip |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4-seat Sedan | 1–3 guests | 220,000 VND (~$9) | 400,000 VND (~$16) |
| 7-seat MPV | 1–6 guests | 270,000 VND (~$11) | 500,000 VND (~$20) |
| 16-seat Van | 1–14 guests | 450,000 VND (~$18) | 850,000 VND (~$34) |
[!TIP] Groups of 4+: Booking one 7-seat MPV at 270,000 VND is far cheaper than two separate Grab rides (~150,000–200,000 VND each) and keeps everyone together.
Direction 1: Airport Pickup to Hoi An
The pickup process at Da Nang
Step 1 — Book in advance: Provide your flight number, landing time, and passenger count via Zalo or hotline. Driver confirmation arrives in 15–30 minutes.
Step 2 — Automatic flight tracking: Faifo Express monitors your real flight status. If you’re delayed 30 minutes or 2 hours, the driver adjusts arrival time automatically — no need to text updates.
Step 3 — Terminal hall pickup: Your driver holds a name sign at the arrival area (T1 or T2). Walk straight to your driver — no need to search the street.
Step 4 — Direct journey to Hoi An: No extra passenger pickups. Air-conditioned vehicle, complimentary bottled water, straight route to your hotel.
Direction 2: Hoi An to Da Nang Airport
This direction requires precise timing — you have a flight deadline.
What time should you depart?
| Flight Time | Recommended Departure | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 6:00–8:00am | 4:30–5:30am | Avoid downtown Da Nang morning rush |
| 8:00am–5:00pm | 90 min before | Normal traffic conditions |
| 5:00–7:30pm | 2 hours before | Evening rush hour congestion likely |
| After 8:00pm | 90 min before | Clear roads, smooth journey |
[!IMPORTANT] Don’t cut it close. Da Nang Airport requires check-in closure 45 minutes before domestic flights, 60 minutes before international. Add 40–50 minutes travel time → depart at least 90 minutes before your flight.
Airport dropoff service includes:
- Hotel or homestay pickup in Hoi An Old Town
- Driver assist with luggage loading
- Real-time GPS route optimization — driver takes alternate routes if traffic detected
- Zalo notification when you enter airport zone

5 Reasons Passengers Choose Pre-Booked Transfers
1. No price haggling after a long flight
After 2–4 hours in the air, negotiating with a taxi driver is the last thing you want. Fixed pricing solves this completely.
2. Traveling with children and luggage
Lots of baggage, tired kids post-flight — hall pickup, driver assistance, available child seats make this the obvious choice.
3. Late-night arrivals
Grab and taxis are scarce after 11pm. Pre-booked drivers are always ready.
4. Groups of 4–6 people
One 7-seat MPV at 270,000 VND beats two Grab rides (150,000–200,000 VND each) and keeps everyone together.
5. Unfamiliar with roads or no local SIM
International visitors and first-timers — pre-booked service with name-sign pickup is the safest, most professional choice.
