For some reason I assumed I could go to Vietnam without visa since I have a Canadian passport. Now I’m at airport in Tokyo and don’t know what to do.

    1. Find a hotel in Tokyo for the next few days
    2. Apply for an evisa for Vietnam.
    3. Call your lodging in Vietnam and explain you’ll be a few days late. You’ll have to swallow any penalty and surrender any non-refundable nights.
    4. Enjoy Tokyo
    5. when you get your Vietnam e-visa, book a new ticket to Vietnam for the following day

    Give yourself a little grace. These things happen and you know this won’t happen to you again now that the lesson is learned.

    25 years of solo travel and I almost made the same mistake earlier this year in another country but caught it in time to cancel my airfare for a full refund.
