Travel enthusiasts rejoice! Direct flights between India and Cambodia are set to take off from June 16th.

This new route is expected to boost tourism between the two nations.

Koy Kuong, Ambassador of the Royal Embassy of Cambodia to India, said he was hopeful that the flow of tourists between the two nations will double year-on-year, with direct flight connectivity and demand for medical tourism in India.

Before the Covid pandemic, around 75,000 people from India used to visit Cambodia every year, and the number is around 45,000 per year as per 2021 figures, the Ambassador informed.

He added that he expects more people from Cambodia seeking medical treatment to come to India "because the cost of treatment is less as compared to neighbouring countries".

For those eager to explore Cambodia's rich cultural heritage, the starting price for a round trip from New Delhi to Phnom Penh is approximately Rs 23,000 (inclusive of taxes), according to Cambodia Angkor Airline's CCO, Eng Molina.
