As first pioneer in launching Family check-in service in Vietnamese market is a special interest of the National Airlines for the elderly and young children through simplifying procedures, saving waiting time at the airports.

Not only families with the elderly and young children are prioritized for check-in procedures, groups of 10 or more passenger are also applied by Vietnam Airlines for new  check-in procedures at the three largest domestic airports including Noi Bai, Da Nang and Tan Son Nhat, to help simplify and speed up the check-in time. The time for the groups to check in is 3 hours before the scheduled departure time for international flights and 2 hours before the scheduled departure time for domestic flights.
In addition to check-in procedures at counters, Vietnam Airlines’s passengers also have other convenient options such as online check-in (via websites, mobile applications, airport kiosks), telephone check-in and in-town check-in. Of which, an average of 40% of Vietnam Airlines passengers depart from Noi Bai, Da Nang and Tan Son Nhat airports to choose to use online check-in services. This number often reaches 50% on peak occasions such as public holidays contributing to reducing overload and congestion at airports.
