Cambodia's largest airport, Techo International, opens near Phnom Penh — redefining travel convenience and elevating experiences for luxury Cambodia tours in 2025 and beyond.
Cambodia Welcomes the World with Techo International Airport
Cambodia has officially entered a new era of global connectivity with the grand opening of Techo International Airport, a $1.5 billion megaproject designed to accommodate growing international tourism. Located just outside Phnom Penh, this modern aviation hub is now the country’s largest and most advanced airport — and a game-changer for those seeking luxury Cambodia tours.
The first commercial flight touched down on September 9, 2025, marking the beginning of a new chapter in Cambodian travel.
