ATF: Heritage cities get new air link

Direct flights between Cambodia and Myanmar will launch in February.

A twice-weekly service from Siem Reap to Yangon, to be operated by Myanmar Airways International, will start on February 23.

Direct flights were “about [creating] connectivity among ASEAN members to boost ASEAN tourism”, said Cambodia’ tourism minister, Thong Khon.

Cambodia is also pushing for direct flights from Russia and Japan, the minister said.
