What it costs and what fits

- Not published as a flat number on the sports-equipment page itself;

- Max weight
- 32 kg
- Max L+W+H
- 203 cm
- Pre-booking
- Pre-booking required
- Filed as
- Sports equipment.
- Vietnam Airlines' official sports-baggage page explicitly lists 'surfboards, surfing kites, surfing sails' together as accepted sports equipment, so kite gear has a category of its own here, not just surfboards.

Before you pack
3 points
- Contact a Vietnam Airlines branch office or Customer Care Center at least 24 hours before departure and give exact dimensions - this is a mandatory pre-notification, not optional
- Because 'surfing kites' are named explicitly, declaring gear honestly as kite equipment should be accepted without needing to disguise it as a surfboard
- Package with no sharp edges (bar/lines protruding is flagged as a rejection risk in general sports-baggage rules)
