As South East Asia continues to open up as the COVID-19 restrictions recede, Bangkok Airways has announced the resumption of flights to nearby international destinations Myanmar, Vietnam, and Cambodia.

In a press release, Thailand’s boutique airline says it will resume service in August and September to Yangon, Da Nang, and Siem Reap.

Direct daily flights between Bangkok and Siem Reap, the Cambodian tourism mecca and home to the world’s largest religious complex Angkor Wat, will launch again on 1 August. Flights to Yangon will also resume on 1 August despite the humanitarian crisis in Myanmar since the military junta overthrew the government in February 2021.

Bangkok Airways will then resume flight service to the former French colonial port of Da Nang, a coastal beach destination in central Vietnam, with direct flights starting again on 1 September.

The president of Bangkok Airways hailed the relaunch as a boon to Thai tourism: “The soon-to-resume flights between Bangkok and Siem Reap, Yangon and Da Nang are anticipated to boost Thailand’s tourism as well as tourism in our neighbouring countries.”
