The announcement came in February but today saw the inaugural service of a daily Emirates flight from Dubai to Cambodia’s capital Phnom Penh, via Yangon Myanmar.

The flight will serve as a connection between two major capitals in the Indochinese region: Yangon and Phnom Penh.

Emirates are also launching a direct flight to Hanoi, Vietnam. A service to Hanoi via Yangon was previously available but this route has been cut to make way for the Cambodia connection.
