On 24 January 2025, AirAsia Cambodia will further expand its network by launching a new service between Phnom Penh and Hanoi, which will operate three times a week. Hanoi, the Vietnamese capital, is famous for its ancient architecture and vibrant culture that blends influences from Southeast Asia, China and France.

The new routes are part of AirAsia's overall strategy to improve network connectivity in the ASEAN region, with the aim of boosting tourism and creating new economic opportunities. By increasing its range of routes, AirAsia Cambodia aims to attract not only leisure travellers, but also business travellers who need reliable and frequent flight options.

According to the airline, ‘these routes are expected to be well received, as there is a pent-up demand for travel among populations eager to explore new destinations and renew business relationships.’

AirAsia Cambodia's commitment to expanding its service offering is testament to its resilience and proactive approach to adapting to changing market demands. By continuously exploring new routes and increasing frequencies, AirAsia aims to become a central player in the Southeast Asian aviation sector.
