Riad Asmat, CEO of AirAsia Malaysia said: “We’re thrilled to be launching this new route to Phnom Penh for the first time from another important hub of ours in Malaysia - the ever bustling city of Penang. Following our flight resumption to Phnom Penh and Siem Reap in Cambodia from Kuala Lumpur earlier this year, this new route further reinforces the popularity and demand for tourism in the Kingdom, and AirAsia is honoured to be able to play a pivotal role in connecting travellers to these popular destinations. 

“Phnom Penh is no stranger to AirAsia. Prior to the pandemic, we flew thousands of travellers to and from the city each month and now with the lifting of  travel restrictions to Cambodia, there has been a surge in demand for more flights and routes. We sincerely thank the Cambodian government for their efforts in enabling seamless travel between the two countries, and we look forward to introducing new routes from Malaysia and beyond in line with growing demand for air travel ”
