Emirates launching a Singapore-Phnom Penh route

[Mattg]

Emirates will launch another fifth-freedom route out of Singapore from 1 May 2024, this time to Cambodia with daily DXB-SIN-PNH flights using a 3-class Boeing 777-300ER.

Could be a fun route to fly!

Emirates is adding a fourth flight between Dubai and Singapore, and the aircraft will continue on from Singapore to Phnom Penh, Cambodia and back to Singapore beginning May 1.

Hopefully this route doesn't have the same fate as the SIN-PEN route, although that one was very much covid-affected.

Good news!

Wonder why it's operating via SIN instead of BKK previously?

I wonder how much demand there actually is to / from Phnom Penh.

I'd imagine that EK would have done some numbers etc, and they must have stacked up okay to resume to PNH via SIN.

Would give SQ a run for its money on that route.

The Flight number it carries is EK348/349. It was the code for the DXB-CMB-SIN sortie previously prior to COVID

Passenger or freight demand?

Flying PNH-SIN tonight and EK has contracted the Plaza Premium lounge for both eligible passengers and the crew during their 4 hour layover. My boarding pass was stamped "Alcoholic Drinks For Airlines Invited Guest"upon entry.
