Flying from Phnom Penh
Located 10km west of the country’s capital, Phnom Penh International Airport is the largest in Cambodia and the main departure point from the country to a number of international destinations around the world.
Passengers flying from Phnom Penh with Qatar Airways will find this airport to be a quietly efficient and friendly destination, and while it may not be the world’s largest airport, it certainly makes up for its diminutive size by the warmth of the welcome its staff offer passengers.
The service is efficient and hassle-free, making it an excellent Asian departure point.
Transportation and parking
Transport to the airport is primarily by taxi or three-wheeled vehicles, which are cheap, remarkably efficient and plentiful.
It is best to ask your hotel concierge to book a taxi on your behalf to ensure you are being charged the correct fare, which ranges from between $9-15 on average.
Be wary of paying any more than this for a taxi journey from the furthest parts of the city to the airport. Parking is limited and primarily short-stay, although some long-stay bays are available. They do fill up quickly so if you are travelling to the airport by car it may be wise to book ahead if possible.
Arriving in Phnom Penh
Passengers flying from Phnom Penh with Qatar Airways depart from the main International Departures area. The airport only serves a limited number of international carriers, so the departures area is quite small, albeit extremely efficiently organised.
