Cheap flights from Warsaw to Phnom Penh

November is the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar covers most of the year, with the stretch from late autumn through spring generally busier than the summer months. Demand peaks around Christmas and New Year, when travel out of Warsaw gets tight, and again in the run-up to Khmer New Year in Cambodia. Midweek departures are usually quieter than Friday and Sunday, and booking several weeks ahead helps on a route with no direct flights. If your dates are flexible, compare a few months rather than a single week.

Several carriers sell tickets on this route, and none of them fly non-stop, so every itinerary is a connection. Qatar Airways, Emirates, Singapore Airlines, Turkish Airlines and Air China are full-service carriers, where the fare normally covers more of the trip. Fly Dubai, Cityjet, Helvetic Airways and Nordic Regional Airlines sit at the lighter end, with a basic fare and extras added as you book. HI Fly Transportes Aereo turns up mainly on charter and seasonal work. What is included varies by fare type and by leg, so check the conditions on the exact flights you choose instead of assuming the airline name settles it.

Phnom Penh is served by Techo airport, which sits outside the city, so plan on a road transfer at the end of a long journey rather than a walk to your hotel. Taxis and ride-hailing apps are the usual ways in, and a hotel shuttle or pre-booked car is worth arranging if you land late or after a string of connections. Traffic in the city can be heavy, so allow more time than the distance suggests. Keep some local currency for the ride, agree the fare or check the meter before you set off, and have your accommodation address to hand.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which Warsaw airport you are flying from, F. Chopin or Modlin, because they are not interchangeable.
• Look at the baggage allowance on the lighter fares, where a cabin bag may be all that is included.
• If your itinerary is split across separate tickets, leave a generous gap in case the first flight is delayed.
• Confirm the entry rules for Cambodia and that your passport has enough validity left for the trip.
• Think about the season at both ends, because the cheapest month is not always the most comfortable one.
• Compare connecting times as well as fares, since a tight change on a long route is not worth the saving.
