PHNOM PENH, Jun 17 (NNN-AKP) – Cambodia’s national flag carrier, Cambodia Angkor Air, yesterday, launched its first direct flight between the capital, Phnom Penh, and India’s New Delhi, the airline operator said in a press release.
“As the sole national flag carrier, Cambodia Angkor Air leads in promoting tourism and socio-economic development by launching this new route,” the press release said.
The connection will make the Angkor Archaeological Park, a UNESCO-listed world heritage site, more accessible to Indian tourists, it said, adding that, it will also provide Cambodian patients with better access to medical treatments in India.
