Every major connecting route from the UK to Phnom Penh (Techo International, KTI) or Siem Reap.
Typical Economy return: £600–£900Total journey time is typically 17–24 hours including the connection, depending on route and layover length. No airline currently publishes fixed weekly frequencies for Cambodia connections the way they do for direct routes, so exact flight counts aren't shown here — check each airline's site for live schedules and current pricing.
Cambodia has a simpler climate pattern than Vietnam — one dry season, one wet season, across the whole country.
The most popular time to visit — minimal rain, comfortable humidity (especially Nov–Feb), and the best conditions for exploring Angkor Wat. Gets hottest March–April.
Frequent afternoon downpours rather than all-day rain, fewer tourists, lush green countryside, and typically cheaper flights and hotels. Tonle Sap Lake is at its most impressive.
The most comfortable stretch within the dry season — lower humidity than other months, making it the single best window for temple-heavy itineraries around Siem Reap.
Once you land, here's where most first-time visitors head.
Cambodia's biggest draw — the vast Angkor temple complex, and the gateway city most visitors fly into.
Cambodia's capital — the Royal Palace, riverside promenade, and a sobering, important history.
A laid-back island escape — white sand beaches, bioluminescent plankton, and a real slow-down from temple-hopping.
Southeast Asia's largest freshwater lake, with floating villages and a dramatically shifting shoreline by season.
Cambodia's remote northeast highlands — waterfalls, ethical elephant sanctuaries, and genuine off-the-beaten-path scenery.
Riverside charm and famous pepper farms in Kampot, with Kep's low-key beach town and crab market close by.
No — there are currently no direct flights from the UK to Cambodia. Every route connects via a hub, most commonly Bangkok (Thai Airways), Abu Dhabi (Etihad), Doha (Qatar Airways), or Dubai (Emirates). Total journey time is typically 17–24 hours including the connection.
London Heathrow offers the widest choice of connecting airlines to Cambodia, making it the best starting point for most UK travellers regardless of exact distance. Since there's no direct route anywhere in the UK, the airport with the most onward connection options matters more than which is physically closest.
Depends on your itinerary. Siem Reap is the gateway to Angkor Wat and is where most first-time visitors head. Phnom Penh is the capital, with more history and culture sites. Many visitors fly into one and out of the other, or travel overland between them (about 5–6 hours by road, or a short domestic flight).
A typical Economy return runs £600–£900. Connecting via Guangzhou (China Southern) is often among the cheapest options; Etihad via Abu Dhabi is currently the single most popular route among UK travellers.
Techo International Airport (KTI) is Cambodia's brand new main airport, which opened in September 2025 and fully replaced the old Phnom Penh International Airport (PNH). If you're booking flights or checking older travel guides, make sure they reference KTI, not the old PNH code, which no longer operates.
