Nguyen Vu Loc 0 Report post Posted January 19, 2010 ...July KUL - SGN and the ticket price works out to be RM364 for AK and RM665 for VN vv. Sorry currently I think I can only travel in July due to job commitment. Any ideas? Waiping, Considering the period End April to End August the peak travel season of Vietnamese and Europeans in/out of SGN, AK price is not bad. July is within the rainy season in Vietnam but rains are not frequent at SGN and HAN, practically no rain in the Central of VN (Nha Trang, Da nang, Hue). Photo Spotting is OK but expect heavy heatwave during 11AM-3PM. Feb-April are the best months at SGN, but if you like aircraft landing with strong crosswind and quick showers (like I do, ) then July is good time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
