Are you still there OP? OP ?
So, either he/she has come and gone, or decided against it. I'm betting it was the second option.So I have a question, I'm supposed to be spending a week in Siem Reap, and a week in PP at the start of March, my first visit to Cambodia.
Are you still there OP? OP ?
Re: Would you still recommend traveling to Cambodia
1) this was a dead thread
2) there has been much to-ing and fro-ing, but last I read Poipet-Aranyaprathet was the only open land border between Thailand and Cambodia, but, only for goods. I'll try to find the link

Re: Would you still recommend traveling to Cambodia
All Cambodian (and Thai) land borders are closed, but I guess they have organised the border trade as they did for Vietnam. It's the passage of people that's the main concern.
Talking of which, I read somewhere that Cambodian authorities have decreed that the thousands of workers returning from Thailand are supposed to "self-isolate". Not sure how that will work out. (Not very well, I suspect.)

Re: Would you still recommend traveling to Cambodia
Are foreigners still allowed to fly in?
I see Thai Smile Airways has flight in a few days.

https://www.khmertimeskh.com/50704526/c ... ers-close/“All the border crossings in 19 places, including the international border checkpoint with Thailand are closed. They are the international border checkpoints at Poipet-Banteay Meanchey, Phnom Chy-Battambang, O’Smach-Oddar Meanchey, Prum-Pailin; 15 regional border checkpoints in Battambang and Banteay Meanchey; and two districts border checkpoints in Battambang and Banteay Meanchey,” he said.

Sure, they can fly in from quite a few countries still. Thailand might be tricky.SiemReapRoddy wrote: ↑Mon Mar 23, 2020 8:39 pm Are foreigners still allowed to fly in?

Re: Would you still recommend traveling to Cambodia
I think it was Bangkok, but I’ve no idea if I’ll be let only the flight. I’m from the UK but it’s still a bit risky.
I actually got a temperature test today and I was 36.1 degrees. It was at Don Sak Pier and I was sure I was being dragged off to quarantine.
I can still extend my visa in Thailand for one month.
I really think the sanctions will be lifted soon. I even heard Trump say the cure is getting worse than the virus.
And I sometimes watch some guy from Philippines and he is saying locals are starting to claim it’s the lack of money and food that will kill them and not COVID-19.

Dude you from the UK do us all a favour, and relax and stay where you are. If in Bangkok, foodpanda is your friend. You may thiank me in the future for that advice.

Re: Would you still recommend traveling to Cambodia
I'm still going to try finding a flight as soon as possible.
I don't think I can do the delivery game too long.
I'm starting to amuse myself watching music videos on YouTube and thinking of the old days, so it's only a matter of time before I go crazy.
