Sure, taxes and "YQ" (seems to be an international surcharge? meaning it wouldn't apply to domestic flights?) will be added... buy still beats a 13 hour bus ride to Siem Reap. Think the wife and I may have ourselves a little mini holiday.

Yeah, but apparently booking doesn't start until 15 May. The printed ad mentioned a lot of locations to and from Siem Reap, but now you mention it, I think all of them may have been international.

It also flies siem reap to s'ville. nice and cheap. even if taxes take it up to $30 a ticket it still beats the hell out of taking the bus/taxi/my car.

According to this tax is as follows:

Airport Tax
From Phnom Penh International - Airport in Phnom Penh
International Departure Tax US $ 25 per person and domestic $6 per person

From Siem Reap International - Airport in Siem Reap
International Departure Tax US $ 25 and Domestic $6 per person

Doesn't list S'Ville rates but I imagine they're the same. Not like that shoebox of an airport needs much funding.

Realistically, at $11 a flight, it would be a good way to get from PP to SV via SR. $22 each way and not having to worry if the bus/cab is going to smash into a cow. Probably about 2.5 hours flight time... so close to the same speed as a taxi and apparently include a snack box with a bit of cake and a water.

^ I'd pay a fair bit more than that to avoid the bus/your car (no offence, it's just that it smells funny - do you wash?) so $11 each way would be a treat

Taxes and fuel surcharge between Sihanoukville and Siam Reap will be about $55 for a return flight. So 2x $5 + $55 ~$65 for a return ticket.
PP - Siam Reap should be $10 more.
