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. Every stop on this trip has two nights or more, so a delay of a few hours costs you time there, not the next flight. 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, Myanmar 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.
