HCMC – Tan Son Nhat International Airport has launched a free shuttle bus service for passengers transferring between Terminal 3 (T3) and Terminal 1 (T1). The shuttle bus operates inside the airport’s parking area, offering a convenient transfer for connecting flights.
The newly-inaugurated Terminal 3 serves domestic flights like Terminal 1, while Terminal 2 caters to international flights. The shuttle bus service runs from 7 a.m. to 3 a.m., with a frequency of every 20 minutes.
The route starts from the transit hall of T3, passing through the airport parking area, and drops passengers at Gate A2 of T1. This service is exclusively for transit passengers who have completed check-in and possess a boarding pass for their next flight. Checked luggage will be automatically transferred by airlines.
After arriving at Gate A2 of T1, passengers can proceed with their journey either at T1 for domestic flights or at T2 for international flights.
Currently, the shuttle bus runs only in one direction, from T3 to T1, making it ideal for passengers flying from Hanoi or Van Don to HCMC. Vietnam Airlines is the only airline operating at T3 with flights from HCMC to Hanoi and Van Don.
