The new direct service Phnom Penh-Yangon will start with three weekly flights on Monday, Thursday and Saturday.
The flight will depart Phnom Penh at 1130 and arrive in Yangon at 1400. The round-trip fare is USD310 with bookings open on the website.

According to Wikipedia, some of the flights that the airline flagged as operational earlier this year, such as Singapore and Seoul, are now flagged “terminated.”
Meanwhile, the airline posted a warning on its website at the weekend after two Cambodian passengers were refused entry at Bangkok in Thailand.
It reminded passengers planning travel to Thailand that they must buy a round-trip ticket or an onward fare to a third country or face deportation from Thailand.
