An
expensive flight for Angkor Wat visitors -
KhmerIntelligence.org, January 9, 2004
The direct flight to Siem Reap is one of the most expensive
in the world: ...it costs USD 270 to flight a distance
of about 500 km in about in 45 minutes with a return ticket
in economy class... Following the well-organized demise
of national flag carrier Royal Air Cambodge in October 2001,
Bangkok Airways and Siem Reap Airways obtained the monopoly
for the fast-expanding and very lucrative Bangkok - Siem
Reap flight after inheriting Royal Air Cambodge's precious
flying rights.
It goes on further to allege that Bangkok Airways pays 'commissions'
to the Hun Sen government as well as shares in the airline.
That information from Khmer Intelligence with a grain of
salt. Sometimes they have great inside info that we have
been able to verify--other times they go way over the top
with anti-Hun Sen musings.
