Myanmar Airways Suspends Flights to Cambodia
Myanmar Airways has temporarily suspended direct flights from Rangoon to Siem Reap and Phnom Penh due to low passenger numbers, an official at the State Secretariat of Civil Aviation (SSCA) said yesterday. … “We don’t know how long they will suspend operations, but when they get more passengers, they will inform Civil Aviation,” Mr. [Mak] Samol [SSCA chief flight operations inspector] said. … Ho Vandy, co-chair of the government-private working group on tourism policy, said that the suspension of the flights could dissuade Burmese tourists from visiting Cambodia. …
