Overview

Get ready, Cambodia! Techo International Airport is set to transform the nation’s economy, officially opening on September 9, 2025, just 30-40 kilometers south of Phnom Penh. The grand inauguration on October 20, 2025, will establish it as the primary commercial aviation hub, replacing Phnom Penh International Airport. Covering 2,600 hectares, Techo will feature four runways and a 700,000-square-meter terminal with advanced technology, handling 13 million passengers annually, with future expansion to 30 million. Its strategic location near the Funan Techo Canal and industrial zones will enhance logistics, trade, and tourism in Southeast Asia, positioning Cambodia as a rising star in the region.

A Golden Opportunity for F&B and Hospitality

The launch of Techo International Airport will spark a surge in travelers, boosting the food and beverage (F&B) and hospitality sectors. As tourists explore Cambodia’s cultural heritage—like Angkor Wat and vibrant markets—the demand for innovative dining and lodging options will soar. Expect stylish airport cafes, authentic local eateries, and luxury hotels emerging around the airport and in key destinations like Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, and Sihanoukville.
