The typical flight time is the median scheduled block time across all carriers on the route, computed the same way in both directions so the difference reflects prevailing winds rather than any change in method.

There is no mass transit or rail link on the island, and ride-share services are not widely available, so taxis and hotel-arranged transfers are what most travelers use. Car and motorbike rentals are available in Duong Dong for exploring the island, but they require a short taxi ride from the airport first.
