Looking for cheap flights from Kolkata to Phnom Penh? FlightGPT compares live CCU to PNH fares across every connected source — Indian carriers, Gulf hubs, OTAs and trusted travel agents — and shows the cheapest options side by side. Whether you want a Kolkata to Phnom Penh non-stop tomorrow, a last-minute weekend deal or the lowest price three months out, every active Kolkata-Phnom Penh fare is one search away.
There is no non-stop Kolkata–Phnom Penh flight, so a hub connection is unavoidable. Via Bangkok, IndiGo or Thai Airways reach BKK, then Bangkok Airways, Thai AirAsia or Cambodia Angkor Air fly the 1-hour hop to PNH. Via Kuala Lumpur, AirAsia offers good through-fares; Singapore Airlines/Scoot via SIN is comfortable but pricier. A single through-ticket on AirAsia or a Star Alliance combination keeps baggage checked to Phnom Penh and reduces missed-connection risk on this two-leg journey.
Bangkok is the most flexible choice with the most onward Phnom Penh frequencies and connections often within 2–3 hours. Kuala Lumpur suits AirAsia loyalists and frequently has the lowest combined fare from Kolkata. Singapore offers a premium experience but a higher price. Total elapsed time runs about 7 hours on a tight Bangkok connection to 10–13 hours with a longer layover. Many travellers tack a day onto the hub city, turning the stopover into a bonus mini-break.
Phnom Penh International (PNH) is unusually close to the centre—about 10 km, or 30–45 minutes depending on traffic. Metered airport taxis and the official PassApp ride-hailing service charge roughly USD 9–15 (about ₹750–1,250) to riverside hotels. Tuk-tuks are cheaper and fun but slower. The local currency is the riel, though US dollars are accepted almost everywhere, so carry small USD notes for transfers, tips and street food when you arrive.
Low-cost carriers carry much of this traffic, so the base fare may exclude checked bags—add 20–25 kg on AirAsia or Vietjet for an extra fee. Round-trip economy from Kolkata typically runs ₹25,000–48,000 depending on season and how early you book. On the ground, Cambodia is inexpensive: a comfortable double room costs USD 25–45 a night and street meals just a couple of dollars. Compare full through-fares including baggage rather than the teaser price alone.
Phnom Penh is most comfortable in the cool, dry season from November to February, with daytime highs around 28–31°C—ideal for sightseeing and onward travel to Siem Reap. March–May is the hottest stretch, often above 35°C, while the May–September wet season brings short heavy showers, lush countryside and the lowest fares. For the best balance of weather and price, target late October or early November before peak demand sets in.
Phnom Penh combines the gilded Royal Palace and Silver Pagoda, the sobering history of Tuol Sleng and the Killing Fields, and a lively Mekong riverfront. It is a natural gateway to Angkor Wat at Siem Reap, so many Indians do a 5–7 night Cambodia loop. Costs are low, the people are warm, and Indian and vegetarian food is available in tourist areas. Pair it with our Kolkata to Siem Reap route for the full temple circuit.
Indian passport holders need a visa for Cambodia, and the simplest option is the official e-visa, usually issued within about 3 working days for a single entry of up to 30 days. Visa-on-arrival is also available at Phnom Penh airport for a similar fee, but the e-visa avoids airport queues. Carry a passport valid 6+ months and a printed copy of the visa. Check current fees on our visa guide before departure.
