Thai flies daily from BKK. (Star * carrier too) Their business class fare is about same price as coach if you ask nicely.

I was there in March/April. Don't miss visiting the Khymer Rouge "Killing Fields" is my suggestion, just outside town. And if going to Cambodia and not visiting the massive Angkor Wat temple complex you really will kick yourself forever. For my other comment on Cambodia see if interested:

Is it safe? From my website report:

Have always wanted to visit this fascinating country but in the past my travel agents have simply considered it far too dangerous. Attacks on tourists are now reasonably unlikely. However, even today some 350 people a month DIE there from landmine explosions, and obviously hundreds more lose limbs. Cambodia was THE most heavily land mined country on earth. You really are conscious about straying off marked walking paths whilst there.


Stick to the known paths is my rather obvious advice, and I mean it!
