Reviewing Vietjet Flight Booking Experiences: Tips & Tricks
Let's dive into some helpful insights gathered from various user comments to help you save on Vietjet flights. Here's a breakdown to optimize your booking process.
1. Merchant Category Codes (MCC) when Purchasing Tickets
- Vietjet Website/App: Generally, MCC is 4722 (travel). Some users report it registering as 4511 (airlines).
- Shopee: MCC 5262 (retail).
- Be: MCC 4121 (taxi/transport).
- SkyJoy (SkyPay): MCC 7379 (IT company).
Choose the Right Card for Rewards: Based on the MCC, you can select cards with cashback offers like Spark TCB (8% + TCB membership tier), KBank (10%), Sacom Amex (20%), or Cake (20%).
Important Note: MSB mDigi (20% cashback) often applies to travel agencies (Traveloka, Agoda) and may not work directly with airline bookings. Verify this information, as it may vary.
2. Convenience Fees on Vietjet Website/App Payments
- Visa/MasterCard/Amex: 108k VND per flight segment.
- Napas/VNPay/VietQR/Momo: 54k VND per flight segment.
- SkyJoy: Free.
3. Avoiding Fees and Payment Strategies
- SkyPay Method: Top up SkyPay within the SkyJoy app and use it for payment to avoid fees and still earn cashback from your bank.
- Direct Payment: Some banks, like HDBank and Vikkibank, may offer direct payments without fees.
- Booking Platforms: Platforms such as Traveloka, Be, Trip, and Agoda can have lower fees or discounts, but complete fee waivers are rare.
4. Vouchers & Cashback Opportunities
- Traveloka: Consider purchasing 1 million VND gift cards for a maximum 200k VND cashback (Cake 20% per month). Apply multiple vouchers per transaction.
- Trip: Offers many discount codes (Visa, Cake, TCB discounts on Thursdays). Card benefits include VIB Amex (1.5%) and Spark MC (3%).
- Agoda: Sometimes prices are lower than the airline by 100–300k VND, even after considering foreign currency conversion fees.
- VIB: Offers 500k VND domestic and 2 million VND international vouchers every Friday.
5. Domestic vs. International Flights
- Domestic Flights: Fees of 54k VND or 108k VND depending on the card.
- International Flights: Additional foreign currency conversion fees apply, regardless of booking platform (airline website/app or intermediaries).
- 0 VND Tickets: These are typically available directly from the airline at noon (12 PM). Use SkyJoy to avoid convenience fees.
6. Additional Booking Tips
- Large Ticket Amounts: Purchase gift cards incrementally to avoid exceeding your cashback limits.
- Special Sales: Watch for sales events (09/09, 11/11, etc.) on platforms like Traveloka and Trip for deals.
- Optimal Booking Time: Prices are often stable when booking about 3 months in advance. Sometimes, the cheapest fares are available 6 months prior (use Google Flights to monitor prices).
- Invoicing: ZaloPay supports invoice generation.
