[2025 Vientiane Airports] Travel Guide for Wattay International Airport (Updated Mar)

It is the largest international airport in Laos and is a connecting point to many destinations. Due to its small size, there are not many facilities or shops here. You do not need to arrive 2-3 hours early like in other places. You can arrive around 1.50 hours before your flight without worrying about missing your flight because there is not much time for check-in, immigration and customs.

#AirlineReview Lao Airlines Lao Airlines flight QV 104 departed from Luang Prabang International Airport to Wat Sai International Airport in Vientiane, taking only 30 minutes to fly. The aircraft used for this flight was a relatively new ATR72-600 propeller plane that was only a few years old. This small plane is popular all over the world. This airline allows a baggage allowance of 20 kilograms. Drinking water is served on the flight. #wattosann

🏷 Lao Airlines 📍 Incheon Airport, South Korea - Wattay Airport, Laos 💁🏻‍♂️ Ttukbokki's [Laos Travel] Story Lao Airlines, a direct flight from Incheon to Vientiane! They served in-flight meals not long after takeoff. It's been a while since I've had in-flight meals... The rice, which tasted similar to samgyetang, was good. You can tell it's an old plane, but the flight attendants were very friendly, and since it's a national airline, they provide bread and drinks as snacks before landing in addition to the in-flight meals. You can also request Beer Lao, a Laos beer. However, they served it when I was heading to Laos, but not when I was returning to Korea~ #Southeast Asia Travel #Lao Airlines #In-flight Meal #Laos Travel

Vientiane International Airport is another airport that tourists must use when coming to Vientiane. It is a small airport with the same standards as other airports, both clean and airy. For Thais who come here, you don't have to worry about the language. Plus, the baht can be used like in Thailand. I can say in one word, "comfortable". Before boarding the plane, you must have a vaccination certificate. No need to check for Covid before boarding the plane. #laos

#favoriteitinerary #TravelDiaries #AirportAdventures #VientianeToSingapore#TravelReview#ExploreLaos I arrived at the departure hall of Vientiane's international airport bright and early at 7 AM, taking a taxi from my hotel that set me back 170,000 kips. I handed the driver 200,000 kips, only to be met with a disappointing claim that he had no small change to return—ouch! The airport, though small, is conveniently located just 10 minutes from the city, albeit costing a hefty 200,000 kips or 10 USD for the ride. The airport's design is modest, a testament to the Japanese grant that made its construction possible in 1998. Upon entering, you're greeted by two sides—domestic on the right and international on the left. Both sides feature some shops, but the price difference between domestic and international shops is comically vast. Naturally, I gravitated towards the domestic side and grabbed my breakfast at Laffe. The check-in process was smooth and swift, taking a mere 10 minutes. Now, with my boarding pass in hand and excitement in the air, I'm all set to fly to Singapore! ✈️

Food and drinks are also available, so you can relax until boarding.#vientiane #Airport #lounge

It's a small airport. Prices are different between international and domestic flights. If you're looking to save money, I recommend going to the domestic airport to buy things. The sandwich in the photo was 18,000k. Smoking is prohibited outside, so if you smoke outside the designated smoking area, a police officer will come to collect a fine. Be careful.

🏷 Taking a taxi from Vientiane Airport to the city 📍 Wattay International Airport 💁🏻‍♂️ Ttukboki's [Laos Travel] Tips Wattay International Airport, the gateway to Laos and located in Vientiane. It is convenient to take a taxi or minibus when traveling from the airport to the city. After you go through immigration - the airport is not that big - you can easily find the counter. Just tell the driver your destination, pay the fare, and follow him. The fare can also be calculated in dollars, so there is no need to exchange money at the airport where the exchange rate is not good! #Southeast Asia Travel #Laos Travel #Vientiane Travel #Travel Tips
