Heh, the English timetable website for the reunification express is still down, 3 months after I last checked. http://www.dsvn.vn/ #

Ha! Got a 2$ USD shuttle to the airport. $12 taxi? Pffft. Our 1415 flight is delayed 1 hour due to “technical difficulties” #

Bother, the flight got cancelled due to a faulty landing gear. Now we have to wait and see how we get home. #

We are delayed an entire day in Hanoi, Catching the same flight, but a day later But we’re staying at the Hanoi Sheraton for free #
