Book and check
- Book in order, first flight first. If a price has gone up, you can rethink the trip before buying the rest. Prices are the cheapest seen lately, for one traveller, not quotes: "Check price" opens the live one. Separate tickets: if one flight is late or cancelled, the next airline won't wait.
- If a flight is late or cancelled. Each flight is its own ticket, so the next airline won't wait or rebook you for free if you miss it. Tightest on this trip: one night in Hanoi, so a flight in a day late misses the flight out. Where a connection is that tight, you can book the next flight once the one before has landed, though its price may have gone up. If a flight is cancelled, its airline normally offers another flight or your money back: take the one that still makes your next flight. A flight missed because the one before was late is usually lost, so look for travel insurance that covers missed connections.
- Entry rules. Check passport and visa rules for Vietnam, Cambodia before you book.
- Seasons. Part of this trip falls in a peak season for storms, floods or heat: watch the forecast in the days before you go, and leave slack in your plans.
Each stop's season
- Hanoi (12–13 Oct): edge of the typhoon season in northern Vietnam, peak months Jul–Sep (Vietnam's national forecasting centre (NCHMF))
- Siem Reap (13 Oct): Mekong flood season in the Mekong and Tonle Sap, peak months Aug–Oct (the Mekong River Commission)
Long-run seasons, not forecasts: a storm can come out of season, and most weeks in season pass without one. Heat is from weather-station averages.
