We are listing ITA prices except for Chicago – Ho Chi Minh City which is $472, but likely is $465 when you use dates found on ITA and buy on Priceline. So Priceline might price these slightly lower.

Priceline cancellation policy is next business day. If you buy now, you have until MONDAY at 11:30PM Eastern to cancel. Buy then plan. That’s almost 72 hours to sort out your plans when buying on a Friday at Priceline.
