U-TAPAO to SIEM REAP

[soi unwise 6]

Need some help.Looking to fly Pattaya to Cambodia at the end of July.Wikitravel state that PMT Airways ( not a wind up ! ) fly daily,started in Nov 2005.

Been on their web site and they have Nov 2005 and 2006 as starting dates.Tried the official U-TAPAO website and well..............

 

Any of you twelve honest and true chaps got the answer ? Dates are flexible but looking around July 28,return 31st.

I hope u get the info you need.. I can tell you this. That you can walk into any travel office and buy a ticket to PP just a cpl hours before it leaves. You can haglle prices at this end too. Its not a big deal at all if your already here in Patts. If not I understand why your checking. But if your in town no savings whatsoever on buying it from your end in advance etc..

Thanks mate.

The info I am working on historically is that it is only possible to fly to Cambodia from BKK? Don't really want the hassle of trecking back to Don Muang if U-TAPAO has the option of flying there now ?

I hope another poster can answer you. I have flown to PP through U Tapoe but I never saw a flight to Siem Riep from there. I dont even thenink they have it direct to PP any more. Hey I could be wrong and I know what you mean about dragging it all the way up to Don Muang!! Its a pain and can get spendy too!! Hope you get your answer and its more encouraging than mine!

In case you take the PP route, flights from PP to Siem Reap leave 3 times a day. Round trip US $ 130.

I just tried to book a U-Tapao to Siem Reip flight for April, and it came back OK:

And yes, the name does make you wonder if you should avoid them at some times of the month!

Thanks for your help fellas.

Will report back on this trip as I know a few people feel like me a short trip from U-TAPAO makes a nice change from going back to BKK.

Thanks again.

This may be a silly question but what do you do about a Visa? I hadn't heard about this route before but it certainly looks interesting. Will they issue a Visa when you land? What about Thai Nationals?

 

Cheers

Yep Immigration at SR will issue a 1 month tourist visa for $20usd. Same same for Thai national.

Take Passports and 1 pic each.
