PS - who would use normal calls to the USA when you have cheap and (nearly) unlimited data? Facetime, Skype, etc all go into the data plan
Anyone know how late the counters are typically open at SGN?
My flight is due to arrive around 10pm on Friday.

My hope is that if I get a SIM at the airport, I can then use Uber into town...unless it is tough to use Uber from SGN like other airports.
