About Noi Bai International Airport

Hanoi faces Vietnamese monsoon with heavy summer rain. Generally moderate tropical conditions.

Is Hanoi Airport turbulent?

Hanoi's northern Vietnam location brings different weather than the south. Winter can bring drizzle and fog while summer sees monsoon thunderstorms. Unlike Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi occasionally feels the effects of typhoons tracking across the South China Sea. The Red River delta location can create fog during transitional seasons.

Summer monsoon brings thunderstorms

How does Hanoi weather differ from Ho Chi Minh City?

Hanoi has a more pronounced seasonal variation with cooler winters. The north is more exposed to typhoons tracking through the South China Sea. Winter fog affects Hanoi more than the tropical south. Summer monsoons bring similar afternoon storms to both cities.

When is the best time to fly from Hanoi?

Autumn (October-November) offers the most pleasant conditions with lower humidity. Spring (March-April) is comfortable but occasionally foggy. Summer monsoon (May-September) brings the most weather delays. Winter is cool and can be drizzly.

Is turbulence at Hanoi dangerous?

No. Modern aircraft are designed to withstand forces far stronger than turbulence. While bumps can feel uncomfortable, they do not pose a safety risk. Pilots actively avoid rough air whenever possible. Learn more about turbulence

Best seats to reduce turbulence when flying from Hanoi?

Seats near the wings feel the least movement because they are closest to the aircraft's center of gravity. Seats at the back of the aircraft feel turbulence more strongly. Learn more about seat selection
