Re Flights
I believe so but don't quote me on that. Malaysia Airlines does regular flights from Oz to VN if you feel like rolling the dice.
Ha Noi and Ha Long Bay (both in the north) are certainly worth visiting. Ho Chi Minh City much less so. It's lost a lot of its character in recent years. HN is the cultural capital of the country while HCMC is the economic capital. That's about all I can say about it unfortunately.
