Direct Flights Phnom Penh-Beijing from January 2019
December 6, 2018
Air China to start Phnom Penh flights from January
After a two-month delay, Air China is set to start direct flights between Beijing and Phnom Penh in January, airport officials said.
The Chinese national flag carrier will operate three flights between both cities every week, Cambodia Airports communications and public relations director Kek Norinda said.
“The company will start direct flight operation from Beijing to Cambodia earlier on January 7. I can confirm that,” Mr Norinda said. The number of flights every week may be increased based on demand, he added.
Despite a considerable number of airlines connecting Cambodia with various cities across China, there is no direct air link between both nations’ capitals yet.
Last year, Air China suspended its Beijing-Siem Reap route after it had been in operation for nearly a year, citing weak demand.

Air China Launches Beijing-Phnom Penh Direct Flight
11/01/19 08:21
Phnom Penh (FN), Jan. 10 - Air China launched its first ever direct flights from Beijing to Cambodia’s Phnom Penh on 7 January 2019, according to Chea Aun, spokesperson for State Secretariat of Civil Aviation, on Thursday.
Aun stated that the direct flight will take us just six hours from Phnom Penh to Beijing, compared to 10 hours spent laying over at other airports when there was no direct flights.
The flight which, operates three times per week by Airbus 320, is capable of carrying 200 nearly passengers, he added.
There are currently several airlines connecting destinations of Cambodia and China, but Air China’s new flight is the first one to directly link Khmer-Sino capital cities, which passengers will no longer have to go through the airports in Guangdong, China.
