Techo International Airport is a major new greenfield airport under development near Boeng Khyang, approximately 37 kilometres south of central Phnom Penh, designed to replace the ageing Phnom Penh International Airport. Backed by the Cambodian government and developed by the OCIC group, it is planned as one of Southeast Asia's largest aviation hubs with capacity for tens of millions of passengers annually. The project reflects Cambodia's ambitions to modernise its aviation infrastructure and stimulate economic growth in the region.
- Terminal 1 — The planned primary passenger terminal, designed to handle both international and domestic flights with modern facilities and high passenger throughput capacity.
- Dedicated airport expressway connecting to Phnom Penh city centre
- Taxi and ride-hailing services (Grab, local taxis)
- Planned shuttle bus services to central Phnom Penh
- Car rental facilities on-site
- Planned airport-adjacent hospitality zone hotels (under development)
- Sokha Hotels & Resorts (regional brand, likely presence)
- Phnom Penh city hotels accessible via expressway
As a newly developing airport, terminal dining options are expected to include a mix of international fast-food chains and Cambodian cuisine outlets once operational. The surrounding Boeng Khyang area is largely undeveloped, so most dining choices for early visitors will be within the terminal itself. Phnom Penh's wider dining scene, renowned for Khmer street food and riverside restaurants, remains accessible via the new expressway.
- The airport is located roughly 37 km from central Phnom Penh — factor in at least 45 to 60 minutes travel time depending on expressway conditions.
- Verify the airport's operational status before travelling, as opening phases and timelines may be subject to change.
- Carry local currency (Cambodian Riel) or US dollars, both of which are widely accepted throughout Cambodia.
- Check with your airline for the latest terminal assignments, as operations may be phased in gradually during the airport's early years.
