Internal flight bookings

Do you have a Cambodian trip report you want to share? Post it here, and feel free to link to your blog if it's a travel blog for Cambodia, South East Asia, or anywhere really. You can ask and answer questions about travel advice in Cambodia or just share your pictures and videos with us. Most people who live in or visit Cambodia have also checked out nearby countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Myanmar, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines, and you can get to most of these countries by traveling overland, so put any travel plans, reviews or questions here. Discussions about dirt bike trails in here as well.

Internal flight bookings

Post by troelshartmann »

Hi all. What is the current situation with internal flights?

Now that tourist visas are available I'm planning to be there late Dec and through Jan. I just tried looking up flights from PP to Sihanoukville and there's no schedule on Cambodia Air.

Nothing on Skyscanner either.

I had assumed internal flights were operating but I may have been wrong?

I believe most domestic flights are from PP to Siem Reap these days. The PP to Sihanoukville route is very thinned out. If you would like a short travel time it might be worth looking a the new PP-Sihanoukville-expressway.

Is that decent route then, fully open? I haven't been in the country since March 2020.

I don't mind a long car journey if the road is decent. Last time I took a 4 hour road journey (not to Sihanoukville) it was hell - roads ripped up, jams the whole way.

Even the domestic flights have been cancelled. Lanmei Airlines used to have weekly Phnom Penh - Sihanoukville flights still few months ago but seems currently they don't have them.

There have been actually less flights to Siem Reap (domestic or international) than to/from Sihanoukville. I think Cambodia Angkor Air has done some flights between Phnom Penh and Siem Reap but nothing frequent.

Let's see if the domestic flights continue early next year once the country is more opened.

The Phnom Penh - Sihanoukville expressway is not completed yet. Will be ready in Q4 2022.

Okay. I've still got some time yet. Will see how things develop.

Anyone done the journey by road recently on what's currently finished?

Are stretches already in use?
