Someone recently commented to me that TSN was the worst airport -regarding exit and entrance time - they had encountered in 40 years of travelling. I had to agree. Consistently 2 hours plus of queueing to get out and 1-2 hours to get in.

One person's experience

Not mine.

Of course, I fly business or first class whenever possible to avoid such conditions.

That cuts enough time off of the wait in line that I have plenty of time to enjoy the free lounge included with my ticket. It's a very special treat for my Vietnamese wife who has a hard time believing that all of the food and beverages are free.

When it's time to deplane anywhere in Vietnam, they always take care of business and first class before everyone else. We usually get the first bus on the tarmac to take us to the terminal to pick up our baggage, and priority travelers normally have their baggage unloaded from the plane first when flying Vietnam airlines.
