A Private Car from Hue to Da Nang Airport, Timed to Your Flight
The transfer from the ancient capital of Hue to Da Nang International Airport (DAD) is chosen by many domestic and international visitors at the end of a stay in Hue. Because Da Nang Airport has many flights and several direct international routes, going by private car from Hue saves waiting time and gives you full control of your schedule.
The distance from central Hue to Da Nang Airport is about 100 km. The Sun Travel car goes through the smooth Hai Van road tunnel in an average of 2 hours to 2 hours 15 minutes and takes you to the departures hall without jostling or changing vehicles.
Timing Your Departure from Hue Without Fear of Missing the Flight
Because this is an inter-provincial trip of 100 km, a safe time buffer is essential so you are never rushed at the check-in counter:
- Domestic flights (Vietnam Airlines, Vietjet Air, Bamboo Airways): You need to be at the airport at least 90 to 120 minutes before departure. So the pickup from your Hue hotel should be at least 4 hours before the flight (for example, for a 14:00 flight, the car should pick you up in Hue at 10:00).
- International flights (Terminal T2): Be at the airport 2.5 to 3 hours before take-off. The pickup in Hue should be at least 5 hours before the flight so you can go through immigration and tax refund without hurry.
- In storm, rain or mist on the pass: The Sun Travel driver contacts you to advise leaving 20 to 30 minutes earlier so the car can travel safely on the highway.
Door-to-Door Service at Both Ends
- In Hue: The driver picks you up at the lobby of your hotel or resort (such as Azerai La Residence, Silk Path or Pilgrimage Village), homestay or private home on any street in Hue, and helps stow all your suitcases in the boot.
- At Da Nang Airport: The car takes you up to the second-floor departures hall (domestic terminal T1 or international terminal T2, depending on the airline), stopping right beside the luggage carts so you can walk easily to the check-in counter.
Choosing a Vehicle by Passengers and Suitcases
Passengers on a flight usually carry heavy checked suitcases and Hue souvenirs (sesame candy, imperial tea, poem conical hats):
- 4-seat car (a late-model sedan): Suits 2 to 3 passengers with up to two medium suitcases and a small bag.
- 7-seat car (a high-clearance MPV or SUV): An ideal choice for a family of 4 to 5 with 3 to 4 large suitcases and a child’s stroller. A high-clearance car is steady and smooth on a long road.
- 16-seat van (Ford Transit, Hyundai Solati): Deep reclining seats and a roomy rear luggage area so a group of 7 to 14 can stretch out for the 2 hours in the car.
Package Price and Airport Transfer Terms
- Included: The private car one way from Hue to Da Nang Airport, a punctual and careful driver, fuel, road tolls (including the Hai Van tunnel fee) and the Da Nang Airport entry fee.
- Not included: VAT (if you need an invoice) and extra costs if the group asks for several long sightseeing stops on the way.

Can we stop for lunch or photos at Lang Co on the way to the airport?
