Etihad Airways and Air Cambodia have launched a new codeshare partnership aimed at enhancing air connectivity between the Middle East and Southeast Asia, with improved access to key destinations in Cambodia and the wider region.
Under the agreement, Etihad Airways customers can now book seamless travel to Siem Reap via Phnom Penh on a single ticket, with baggage checked through to their final destination.
The arrangement provides convenient access to Siem Reap, home to the world-renowned Angkor Wat, as well as cultural attractions including night markets, Khmer cuisine, and heritage sites.
In addition, Air Cambodia passengers will gain access to Etihad’s services between Phnom Penh and Abu Dhabi, expanding travel options to the UAE capital and Etihad’s global network.

“Cambodia is an important and growing market within our network, with increasing demand for travel to and from the destination. This partnership with Air Cambodia enables us to extend that reach, providing our guests with seamless access between Siem Reap and the wider region through a single booking via Abu Dhabi.”
Eng. Molina, Chief Commercial Officer at Air Cambodia, noted that, “This partnership with Etihad strengthens connections between Southeast Asia and the Middle East. Our passengers gain direct access to Abu Dhabi, an important hub for business, trade, and tourism, while Etihad’s customers can explore Cambodia’s rich cultural heritage. We look forward to welcoming more visitors to discover the wonders of Angkor Wat and beyond.”
The partnership also extends connectivity through an interline agreement, allowing Etihad customers to access Air Cambodia’s Vietnam network, including destinations such as Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, and Phu Quoc.
Etihad Airways began direct operations to Phnom Penh in October 2025, marking a key expansion of its Southeast Asia network.
