Cambodia casino operator to fly in high rollers

Monday, 12 Aug, 2014 0

Cambodia’s largest casino group is moving into aviation with a plan to fly in its high-end customers from China and Russia.

It will launch its own fleet of jet aircraft and build a $15 million VIP terminal at Phnom Penh International Airport.

Nagacorp hopes the private VIP service will double the number of Chinese customers at its casinos.

Following the recent purchase of an Airbus A320 jet, NagaCorp will collaborate with outbound Chinese travel agents to offer regular charter services for gamblers.

China is Cambodia’s second largest market behind Vietnam and so far this year Chinese visitation to the country is up almost 19%.

Last week Nagacorp reported a 61% rise in VIP gaming revenue for the first six months of the year to $86 million.

The group is awaiting a decision on its airline operational certificate application from the Cambodian State Secretariat of Civil Aviation.
