Vientiane Cheap Flights - VTE

Vientiane-Wattay International Airport (VTE) Laos is a moderately sized but busy facility serving the Laotian capital city of Vientiane. Dramatically combining the old and the new architecturally, this is the main airport in Laos and it welcomes passengers on cheap flights from many major airports throughout Asia.

The airport’s international terminal is modern and provides a range of amenities, such as eateries, shopping and currency exchange. There is also an Internet café, and several bars to choose from. This is definitely a contrast to the airport’s older and tiny domestic terminal, where convenience and services are virtually nonexistent.

Vientiane-Wattay International Airport (VTE) Laos is located just two miles from the capital’s downtown area, and there are several transport options for reaching the city center. Taxis are highly recommended. Some hotels, however, offer private pickup services, and there is also a selection of buses. Or perhaps on your vacation be daring and try a three-wheeled “tuk-tuk.” This might be a noisy and bumpy ride, but it would certainly give any adventurous arriving traveler an immediate taste of the colorful local culture.

Carriers such as Thai Airways International, Lao Airlines, China Eastern Airlines, Air Asia, Vietnam Airlines and Mandarin Airlines all provide cheap flights to Vientiane-Wattay International Airport (VTE) Laos. In addition, the domestic companies include Lao Air and Lao Airlines.
