• Vlogger SkyAdventurer:

“Taking a helicopter to Con Dao is incredibly smooth, no turbulence at all. It's essential to note that there are no flight attendants on the helicopter, so there won't be any in-flight services. However, considering it's just a one-hour helicopter ride, I don't think any services are necessary. The seating on the helicopter is quite compact, so you might not feel very comfortable sitting for an extended period.”

'I prefer taking a helicopter to Con Dao rather than a high-speed boat because it saves travel time and offers beautiful views from above. Besides, helicopter tickets are reasonably priced, the seats are a bit small but still comfortable. It's quite an interesting journey for me.'
