Passengers can enjoy improved connectivity to one of Southeast Asia’s most significant destinations. Notably, Turkish Airlines will be the only European airline operating flights to Phnom Penh, reinforcing its robust route network.
Statement from Turkish Airlines
“We are continuously expanding our network in Asia and strengthening our connections to strategic destinations in the region,” says Prof. Ahmet Bolat, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Supervisory Board of Turkish Airlines. “The new flights to Phnom Penh are an important step in this direction, creating new opportunities for tourism and the economy.”
Bottom line
Cambodia is a fantastic place to visit and Turkish is generally a very pleasant way to fly. A non-stop routing would be even better, but at least the stops in Bangkok are short.
