Turkish Airlines becomes first European airline to launch Phnom Penh flights

#Traveltradetogether

Turkish Airlines will commence flights from Istanbul to Phnom Penh on December 10, 2025, establishing the first regular service between Europe and Cambodia’s capital.

The service – marking the seventh flag carrier to fly to Phnom Penh – is set to improve trade relations between Türkiye and Cambodia, contributing to the Asian country’s economy.

The airline will operate three-weekly flights to Phnom Penh via Bangkok. Flights will depart from Istanbul to Phnom Penh on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, while flights from Phnom Penh to Istanbul will operate on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.

Phnom Penh flights will expand Turkish Airline’s Far East network to 20 cities and 21 airports. The service gives Turkish Airlines passengers easier access to one of Southast Asia’s key destinations.

Commenting on the new route, Turkish Airlines Chairman of the Board and Executive Committee, Prof. Ahmet Bolat, said: “At Turkish Airlines, we continuously expand our network in Asia and strengthen our connections with strategic destinations in the region. The launch of Phnom Penh flights marks a significant step forward in this goal. Our flights to Cambodia will create new opportunities for both tourism and business. Additionally, as the only European carrier flying to this destination, we will further solidify our leadership in the region.”
