This corridor carries a demand score of 2/10 in our route file and is flagged as a leisure, VFR and business corridor. Phnom Penh; Cambodia Angkor Air. Read that number for what it is: an editorial 1-10 ranking of estimated Filipino-language search interest, built for prioritising which pages we research first. It is not a passenger count, not a load factor, and not a quality signal about the airlines involved. High-scoring corridors are the ones where seats on the cheapest fare classes disappear first and where the gap between an early booking and a two-week-out booking is widest; low-scoring corridors tend to hold their price longer but give you fewer departures to choose from if a plan slips.

Manila to Phnom Penh connects the Philippine capital directly with the capital of Cambodia, with around 4 flights a week. The route carries leisure travellers, regional business travellers and passengers connecting onward across Indochina. Block time is about three hours, a short daytime sector.

Checked baggage and the OFW uplift on MNL–PNH

10 kg is the largest OFW uplift on this route, carried by Philippine Airlines on top of a 23 kg economy base — 33 kg in total for a qualifying passenger.

Checked allowance on this pair, from our carrier file:

• Philippine Airlines — 23 kg economy base, +10 kg under Overseas Filipino Bayani Program (extra baggage 10kg + handling) = 33 kg for a qualifying worker.

The uplift is the part people get wrong, so here is where it does not reach. It travels with the passenger’s status rather than with the fare, and it is unlocked at check-in by documents — an OEC or OFW Pass and, usually, the employment contract. Book a bags-free base fare on a low-cost carrier and there is no base allowance for the uplift to sit on top of. Book the domestic feeder as a separate ticket and the uplift does not follow the bag onto it. Fly a segment operated by a partner airline under a codeshare and the operating carrier’s own rules apply, not the one whose code is on your ticket. And the allowance is per passenger, not per booking — you cannot pool it across a family unless the airline’s own pooling rule says so. Verify the number at booking; excess bought at the airport is priced per kilo and is the most expensive kilo you will ever buy.

Two carriers fly Manila to Phnom Penh: Philippine Airlines and Cambodia Angkor Air, both full-service with a checked baggage allowance and a meal included. The pairing gives the route a wider spread of schedules across the week.

PHP fares

₱28,069 is the cheapest MNL–PNH one-way in this site’s fare cache, on VietJet Air. It is a cache floor for one date and fare class, not a held quote. 4 one-way departures a week are catalogued on the pair across 2 carriers on file.

That ₱28,069 is a cache reading, not a quote, and the difference is worth stating plainly. It is the lowest one-way price the fare feed returned for MNL–PNH at the moment it was polled, for one specific departure date, in one specific fare class. Nothing about it is averaged, none of it is a return fare, and no one is holding it: the seats at that price are usually few and can sell while you are still comparing. Three things it also excludes: checked baggage where the carrier sells a bags-free base fare, seat selection, and any change or refund flexibility. Treat it as the floor of the range you should expect to see, then compare the all-in total once the bag you actually need is added back.

Fares are quoted in PHP and move with demand. Prices rise around the December holidays and the regional school breaks; for those dates, booking six to eight weeks ahead is sensible. For ordinary travel, three to five weeks of lead time usually secures a reasonable economy fare.

About Phnom Penh

1 arrival airport serves this route: Phnom Penh International Airport (PNH), at Phnom Penh, Cambodia. 4 one-way departures a week are catalogued on the pair across 2 carriers on file. ₱28,069 is the lowest one-way the fare feed returned for this route on 2026-08-02.

On arrival you are landing at Phnom Penh International Airport, ICAO VDPP, serving Phnom Penh, Cambodia. One habit worth forming on any arrival: read the airport, not the city name. Multi-airport cities are common, the discount is usually attached to the inconvenient field, and the ground leg quietly reclaims both the money and the hour. Check which airport your fare actually lands at before you compare two prices, and if you are connecting onward from a different airport in the same city, treat that as a separate journey with its own buffer — no airline protects a connection that involves a taxi.

Phnom Penh is the capital of Cambodia, a city on the Mekong and Tonle Sap rivers that blends French-colonial architecture with a busy modern centre. For travellers from Manila it is a leisure and business destination and a gateway to the rest of Cambodia.

Delays and cancellations: what actually applies on MNL–PNH

2 rulebooks cover MNL–PNH from the Philippine side: the Civil Aeronautics Board’s Air Passenger Bill of Rights, which governs the departure from a Philippine airport, and the Montreal Convention 1999, which caps liability for delay and baggage. Cambodia may operate its own scheme for departures from its airports; this page does not track it.

None of the statutory compensation schemes this site sources — EU261, UK261, the Saudi GACA regulation, Canada’s APPR and the US DOT consumer rules — reaches MNL–PNH. Read that as a statement about our source list, not as a finding that Cambodia has no rules of its own: states routinely regulate departures from their own airports, and the civil aviation authority of Cambodia is the body to check before you conclude that nothing applies. What definitely does apply in both directions is the Montreal Convention 1999, which caps a carrier’s liability for delay and for baggage that is damaged, delayed or lost. Montreal reimburses proven loss up to a cap; it pays no fixed sum for the inconvenience itself, so keep receipts rather than counting hours.

On the Manila end, a flight departing a Philippine airport is covered by the Air Passenger Bill of Rights administered by the Civil Aeronautics Board, which obliges the carrier to offer rebooking or a refund and to provide amenities as a delay lengthens. It is a service and refund standard rather than a compensation tariff, so the outcome is rebooking, a refund and amenities rather than a set payment.

FAQ

7 questions below are answered from the route, carrier and fare records this site holds for MNL–PNH. Anything that is a cached floor rather than a bookable price says so, and rules that fail in specific situations are answered with those situations named.

Which airlines fly from Manila to Phnom Penh? Philippine Airlines and Cambodia Angkor Air fly Manila to Phnom Penh, with around 4 departures a week.

How long is the flight from Manila to Phnom Penh? Nonstop block time is about 3.0 hours.

When are Manila to Phnom Penh fares cheapest? Fares on MNL-PNH are quoted in PHP and move with demand. They climb around the December holidays and Holy Week. Booking four to eight weeks ahead usually secures a reasonable economy fare.

Are there nonstop flights from Manila to Phnom Penh? Yes — Manila to Phnom Penh is flown nonstop. Booking early still helps, as seats on the cheapest fare classes sell first.

What is the cheapest Manila to Phnom Penh fare on record here? ₱28,069 one-way — the lowest price the fare feed returned for MNL–PNH when this route was last polled on 2026-08-02, on VietJet Air. That is the minimum of one record for one route, not of the whole cache: a floor for a single date and fare class, not a held quote, and it excludes checked baggage where the carrier sells it separately.

Does the OFW baggage uplift apply to every fare on MNL–PNH? No. The largest uplift on this route is 10 kg with Philippine Airlines, granted at check-in against an OEC or OFW Pass. It does not apply to a bags-free base fare, to a separately ticketed domestic feeder, or to a codeshare segment operated by a partner under its own rules, and it is per passenger rather than per booking.

Can I claim delay compensation on MNL–PNH? Not under any scheme this site sources. The fallback is the carrier’s conditions of carriage plus Montreal Convention 1999 liability limits, and Cambodia’s own civil aviation authority is worth checking for departures from its airports. Separately, a departure from a Philippine airport is covered by the Civil Aeronautics Board’s Air Passenger Bill of Rights, which mandates rebooking, refunds and amenities but sets no fixed cash scale.
