Cambodia Travel Advice for UK Travellers
We keep informed of the latest travel guidance to Cambodia and follow advice as set out by the British Foreign Office. Safety of our travellers is paramount and we recommend that you check the latest travel updates from the relevant advisory body in your country.
Flying to Cambodia from the UK:
The average flight time from the UK to Cambodia is around 15 hours with a stop en route. The main transport hubs in Cambodia are the capital of Phnom Penh and Siem Reap. There are no direct flights to either Phnom Penh or Siem Reap from the UK. From London some of the fastest flight options are with Thai Airways via Bangkok, Malaysia Airlines via Kuala Lumpur and Singapore Airlines via Singapore. From elsewhere in the UK two stops are required, usually one in London and another en route in Asia or the Middle East. A number of our Cambodia tours combine with neighbouring Vietnam and will start in either Hanoi or Saigon and end in Siem Reap. For such a route you can book what's known as an open jaw ticket, flying into one city and departing from another. Vietnam Airlines are a good option flying this route. We have a full ATOL licence (ATOL 6109) and can assist with your international flight booking to Cambodia.
