When you take a short walk out, you will hit the first road. Ths is actually the pick up point for personal vehicles. What you have to do is to actually cross this small 2 lane road and you will have to go up on to a divider. This is the ACTUALL TAXI PICK UP POINT follow the arrow...you should be fine. look for the following TAXI companies. VINASUN, VINA TAXI, MAI LINH, TAXI FUTURE. Never ever be afraid to push the touts asside and say no. You have every right to say no. Have been to airport 4 times in the last 3 weeks. The most recent being only last thursday night to pick up my boss. No such thing as asking you to go the front and taking the taxi.


Hello Neighbour,

So this "Taxi pick up point" still do exist.
I always do that way.
Best way to take a proper taxi.

Best Best Regards
