Cambodia has an open skies policy that promotes Asean connectivity, which, in turn, allows more goods to be transported and more people to travel to other countries.
The news of AirAsia Cambodia also surfaced during a recent press conference in Kuala Lumpur where CEO Tony Fernandes announced a new service from Kuala Lumpur to Sihanoukville.

Currently, AirAsia flies a daily service from Kuala Lumpur to Phnom Penh and Siem Reap.
The objective of AirAsia Cambodia is also about connectivity. According to Tony Fernandes, one of the most important aspects is for Sihanoukville people to have another option to fly.
He also hopes that small businesses can benefit by expanding their businesses into Asean. This is also part of the AirAsia expansion into Indochina, where AirAsia Vietnam is also in the works for 2018. For more information, visit the AirAsia website.
