Small Planet Airlines (Cambodia)


Small Planet Airlines Cambodia was an airline based at Siem Reap International Airport. It was a subsidiary of the now defunct Small Planet Airlines from Lithuania.

History

Small Planet Airlines Cambodia is the name of Small Planet Group's Cambodian subsidiary, created as a joint-venture to reduce the effects of seasonality on its business that offers holiday charters through its European bases. In October 2017 Small Planet was granted an air operator's certificate by the Cambodia State Secretariat of Civil Aviation to establish a carrier based at Siem Reap. Small Planet Airlines Cambodia planned to operate leisure flights from Siem Reap to destinations in South Korea and China with plans for further Asian countries, including Thailand and Japan. It commenced operations on 30 November 2017 with its first flight from the capital Phnom Penh to Siem Reap.
In November 2018 the airline temporarily suspended operations due to financial difficulties. In the weeks prior, its sister companies in Poland and Germany also ceased operations for the same reason.
