Month-by-month price guide for Manila to Da Nang flights
💡 Pro tip: The cheapest months are September, October, and November — often ₱4,500–₱7,800 roundtrip without any seat sale, since this is Central Vietnam's rainy season and tourist demand drops. Avoid late May through mid-July (DIFF fireworks festival) and December 20–January 10 — those are the two most expensive windows of the year, when hotel rates alone can jump 40–60%.
📅 Da Nang events & fare surges
MNL → Da Nang fares spike hard around these dates — book early or avoid entirely
🎆 DIFF — Da Nang International Fireworks Festival
Late May – mid July annually · 6 competition nights on the Han River
+75%
avg fare surge
Da Nang's biggest annual tourism draw and the single largest fare event on this route. Normal ₱7,000–₱9,000 fares climb to ₱11,000–₱16,500 roundtrip across the roughly six-week festival window, and Han River-adjacent hotels sell out 2–3 months ahead. It also overlaps with Vietnam's hottest, most humid stretch of the year. Unless you're specifically going for the fireworks, this is the window to actively avoid.
💡 Book by February if you want to see DIFF — or fly in March or September instead and skip festival pricing entirely.
🎄 Christmas & New Year
December 20 – January 10
+65%
avg fare surge
The three-week Christmas and New Year window is the second biggest surge on MNL–Da Nang. Filipino holiday travellers compete for seats with regional tourists escaping colder climates for a beach break. Fares routinely hit ₱10,500–₱16,000 roundtrip. Book before October for December travel, or wait for the deep post-holiday lull that hits by mid-January.
💡 January 11–31 is the quiet window — fares reset fast and you'll pay 30–40% less than Christmas week for the same beaches.
🧧 Tet Nguyen Dan (Vietnamese Lunar New Year)
Late Jan–Feb, date shifts yearly (Feb 6, 2027) · ~9-day national holiday
+35%
avg fare surge
Tet is Vietnam's most important holiday, and it's a different kind of surge than a typical tourist event: domestic flights get reshuffled to move Vietnamese families home, which tightens seat availability on international routes too, even though inbound tourism actually dips. Many small restaurants, markets, and tour operators close for several days around the holiday itself, so if you land mid-Tet, don't expect Da Nang to run at full speed.
💡 Fly the week after Tet ends instead of during it — shops reopen, fares ease, and the flower markets are still up around the city.
🇵🇭 Philippine Holy Week
March–April, date shifts yearly with the dry season
+25%
avg fare surge
Holy Week usually falls during Da Nang's driest, most pleasant weather (March–April), which makes it a popular window for Filipino travellers looking to combine a long weekend off work with genuinely good beach conditions. The bump is real but nowhere near DIFF or Christmas-level — Cebu Pacific and AirAsia both add capacity for the surrounding weeks.
💡 Flying the Tuesday or Wednesday right after Easter Sunday instead of the Thursday before saves 15–20% versus the peak Holy Week rush.
💰 PH Long Weekends & 13th Month Payout
Nov–Dec (13th month pay release); scattered PH long weekends year-round
+20%
avg fare surge
Unlike MNL–Dubai or MNL–Riyadh, this route doesn't see a dramatic OFW mass-exodus surge — Vietnam's Filipino community (roughly 7,000 nationwide) is small and mostly on standard teaching contracts, not concentrated end-of-contract flights home. But 13th month payouts in November and December do noticeably lift discretionary travel bookings on budget-friendly routes like this one, and it compounds with the approaching Christmas crunch.
💡 Mid-week departures (Tuesday or Wednesday) consistently price 15–25% below Friday–Sunday departures on this route, long weekend or not.
📊 How to read this: Surge percentages are averages vs the same route in a non-event week. A +75% surge on a ₱7,500 base fare means roughly ₱13,100. DIFF season is the single biggest thing to plan around on this route — nothing else comes close. The single best thing you can do: subscribe for alerts and book well before February if you're travelling May–July.

Is Da Nang cheaper than Bangkok? Yes, noticeably. A local bowl of mi quang runs ₫35,000–50,000 (₱82–117); the closest Bangkok equivalent, pad kra pao, runs closer to ₱90–120 at current rates. Hotel rates outside DIFF season are also cheaper than Bangkok's Sukhumvit strip for a comparable 3-star. If you're chasing a visa-free week that stretches a piso-fare budget the furthest, Da Nang is one of the best-value city-and-beach combinations Filipinos can fly to direct.
🇵🇭 Filipino traveller intel — Da Nang edition
Things a Skyscanner page would never tell you
From July 1, 2026, Vietnam requires a Digital Arrival Card and a new Health Declaration — separate from anything you've done before. Many Filipinos who've flown to Vietnam pre-2026 have no idea this changed. Both are free and done online through the official government portal — the arrival card within 72 hours of your flight, the health declaration within 7 days. Do both from your phone before you leave Manila; don't count on doing it at the gate or in the air.
Book a return ticket, even a cheap changeable one. Vietnamese immigration at Da Nang isn't as aggressive about one-way tickets as some destinations, but travellers who arrive with no onward flight and no accommodation booking get pulled for extra questioning more often than those who have both ready to show. A flexible return on the same budget carrier costs a few hundred pesos and removes the risk entirely.
Unlike Bangkok or Kuala Lumpur, Da Nang has exactly one airport — no BKK-vs-DMK guessing game. Every airline on this route (Cebu Pacific, PAL, AirAsia Philippines, Vietnam Airlines) lands at the same terminal, just 3km from the city. That's genuinely rare for a Southeast Asian gateway city and it removes a whole category of first-timer confusion other routes on this site have to warn you about.
Vietnamese ATMs charge ₫50,000–80,000 (~₱117–187) per foreign withdrawal — on top of whatever your Philippine bank charges. BDO, BPI, and Metrobank all add their own 1.5–3.5% foreign transaction fee on top of that. On a ₱10,000 withdrawal you could lose ₱300–₱500 to combined fees. A Wise or similar multi-currency card set up before you fly skips most of this, and its VND exchange rate consistently beats what you'll get from a Philippine bank or an airport kiosk.
This route is younger and thinner than MNL–Bangkok, so cheap seats disappear faster relative to demand. AirAsia Philippines only started flying MNL–Da Nang in March 2026, with just 4 flights a week — far fewer than an established route gets. Launch-promo fares from ₱888 one-way sold out within hours, not days. piso-fare.com monitors this route around the clock and sends an alert the moment a fare drops — subscribe below rather than relying on Facebook to catch it in time.

No. Philippine passport holders can visit Vietnam visa-free for up to 21 days for tourism. You do not need to apply for a visa before travelling. Bring a passport valid at least 6 months beyond your entry date with 2 blank pages, a return ticket, and proof of accommodation. Since July 1, 2026, you must also complete Vietnam's free Digital Arrival Card and a new Health Declaration online before flying — both take a few minutes through the official government portal.
Direct nonstop flights from Manila (MNL) to Da Nang (DAD) take approximately 2 hours 30 minutes to 2 hours 50 minutes, depending on the airline and specific schedule. Da Nang has a single international airport just 3km from the city center — there's no dual-airport confusion here the way there is on some other Southeast Asian routes.
September, October, and November are consistently the cheapest months — Central Vietnam's rainy season keeps tourist demand low and fares drop to ₱4,500–₱7,800 roundtrip even without a seat sale. The absolute worst window is late May through mid-July, driven by the Da Nang International Fireworks Festival (DIFF), followed by Christmas and New Year (Dec 20–Jan 10). Book by February if you want to catch DIFF, or plan around it entirely for a cheaper trip.
For base fares, Cebu Pacific and AirAsia Philippines are usually cheapest, with AirAsia's 2026 route-launch promos undercutting Cebu Pacific on some dates. Always check the all-in price — budget airline advertised fares don't include checked baggage (₱1,000–₱1,800 each way) or seat selection. Philippine Airlines and Vietnam Airlines regularly run promos that close the gap with budget carriers during off-peak months.
A piso fare is a promotional fare — popularised by Cebu Pacific — where base fares drop to ₱1. On the MNL–Da Nang route, piso fare and route-launch sales have pushed all-in roundtrip prices to ₱4,500–₱5,500. These sales typically last 24–72 hours with very limited seat availability, and because this route is newer and thinner than MNL–Bangkok, the cheapest seats go even faster. Subscribe to piso-fare.com alerts to be notified within minutes of a fare drop.
Starting July 1, 2026, every traveler entering Vietnam must complete a free Digital Arrival Card (within 72 hours of arrival) and a new Health Declaration under Decree 165/2026/ND-CP (within 7 days of arrival), both through the official government portal. Neither replaces the 21-day visa exemption for Filipinos — they're additional pre-arrival steps. Do both from your phone before you leave Manila; many Filipinos who've flown to Vietnam before 2026 don't yet know these exist.
