⚠️ About this list: Airline schedules change frequently. This list is compiled from multiple sources including Wikipedia, official airport websites, and route databases. Some points to keep in mind:
- Codeshares. Many airlines listed at airports are codeshare or interline partners that don't actually fly their own planes to Cambodia. Air Canada, Air France, Finnair, Alaska Airlines, and JetBlue appear on the official Phnom Penh airport site but do not operate their own flights to Cambodia — they codeshare with partner airlines.
- Seasonal. Some routes only operate part of the year. TUI Airways (KOS) and Ruili Airlines (KOS) are seasonal. Turkish Airlines has reduced frequency in off-peak.
- Suspensions. IndiGo (Kolkata → Siem Reap) is suspended July–September 2026 but still listed as an active route. Airlines pause and restart routes regularly.
- "Hardly fly." Myanmar Airways International and PAL Express operate very limited schedules — sometimes only 1–2 flights per week. They're included but noted.
- New entrants. AirAsia Cambodia launched in 2025 and is still building its network. Routes may be added or dropped.

Route Pricing Intelligence
✈️ Route pricing snapshot — 30 August 2026
- Indicative fares from 30 November 2026 — subject to change. Fares below are the cheapest return fares found in flight searches for late-November 2026 travel. Prices move constantly; treat these as a direction-of-travel guide, not a quote.
- Siem Reap → Bangkok: Thai Airways from €195 (nonstop), Cambodia Airways from €213, Thai AirAsia from €249.
- Siem Reap → Singapore: Singapore Airlines from €379 (nonstop, ~2h25m). Connecting options via Bangkok start around €679.
- Siem Reap → Kuala Lumpur: AirAsia Cambodia from €203 (nonstop) — the cheapest link from SAI in the snapshot.
- Siem Reap → Ho Chi Minh City: Vietnam Airlines from €221 (nonstop).
- Phnom Penh (KTI) routes: the late-November search returned carrier-site listings rather than live fare blocks for KTI departures in this week's snapshot — fares for Phnom Penh should be checked directly with carriers. The densest network (21 routes) means more competition on trunk routes.

✈️ Weekly airlift notes — 7 Aug 2026
- Automated route tracking baseline established (revised). First weekly snapshot of scheduled international arrivals into Phnom Penh Techo Takhmao (KTI), Siem Reap Angkor (SAI), and Sihanoukville (KOS): 33 unique routes (21 into KTI, 9 into SAI, 2 into KOS) operated by 28 carriers. No prior week to compare — this run sets the baseline for weekly new/dropped route detection.
- Phnom Penh (KTI) — 21 scheduled international arrival routes, the densest of the three airports. Note: Phnom Penh's commercial traffic now operates from the new Techo Takhmao International Airport (KTI); the PNH code refers to the former Phnom Penh International and is no longer the live hub code.
- Siem Reap (SAI) — daily links from Bangkok (Bangkok Airways, Thai Airways), Don Mueang (Thai AirAsia), Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam Airlines, VietJet Air), Kuala Lumpur (AirAsia Cambodia), and Singapore (Singapore Airlines).

📌 Gulf hub context — the 2026 Middle East disruption (permanent reference, keep this box)
- Exposure: Cambodia’s State Secretariat of Civil Aviation (SSCA) estimates Gulf hubs (Doha, Dubai, Abu Dhabi) carry ~12,960 travellers to Cambodia per week (~51,840/month) across 52 Middle East-linked flights — 46 weekly from Phnom Penh’s Techo International (incl. 8 cargo) and 6 from Siem Reap Angkor.
- The halt: When Qatar Airways, Emirates and Etihad suspended or curtailed services through Gulf hubs during the March 2026 Middle East disruption, that exposure was cut at the source — long-haul Western/European/North American connectivity, the highest-yield segment, was the most affected.
- Recovery: Emirates resumed Phnom Penh–Dubai daily (via Singapore) on 1 May 2026 and Siem Reap–Dubai 3x weekly (via Bangkok); Etihad operates direct Abu Dhabi–Phnom Penh (4x weekly since Oct 2025) and expanded an Air Cambodia codeshare (Apr 2026). Qatar Airways’ Phnom Penh service status was still to be confirmed at the time of writing (Aug 2026).
- Reading note: Gulf hub services often operate as multi-stop itineraries (via Singapore or Bangkok), so they may not appear as standalone route listings — treat the carrier tables’ “Via Dubai/Bangkok” rows as the reference for Gulf access rather than the route diff.

About the Data — how this page is compiled
The route snapshot is collected weekly from a scheduled route-tracking feed covering international arrivals into Phnom Penh (KTI), Siem Reap (SAI) and Sihanoukville (KOS). The airline tables combine that feed with carrier route maps, airport websites and industry listings. Frequencies reflect scheduled listings at the time of collection and can change. Fares are indicative search results for late-November 2026 travel, in EUR return economy, and move daily. Airline schedules change frequently — verify with the carrier before planning travel.
A reading note — read the airlift numbers with caution.
UN Tourism’s arrivals-by-mode-of-transport data show that Cambodia’s post-pandemic recovery was
overwhelmingly
overland-driven: between 2019 and 2022 the share of overnight visitors arriving
by air fell from roughly two-thirds to about a third, while land arrivals came to dominate (≈65% by 2022).
The practical read is that long-haul, flight-dependent demand — which carries the highest yield — collapsed
harder and has been slower to recover than short-haul overland traffic. This is a demand-side lens, and an
admittedly cloudy one: official mode-of-transport splits describe the
mix of arrivals, not the strain on
airlift itself, and the picture is especially ambiguous in a border context. The Cambodia–Thailand
dynamic is the wildcard — it has visibly distorted the usual overland metrics and remains genuinely hard to
forecast. The honest conclusion is not that airlift is weak, but that the headline numbers cannot be read at
face value: capacity, yield and border politics must be weighed together.
