The Phnom Penh Post’s May Kunmakara reported on the current state of Siem Reap tourism sector, particularly tourist arrivals by flights.
Although the number of overall arrivals in Cambodia continued to grow in November, all-important air arrivals at Siem Reap, Cambodia’s main tourism draw, fell 10.89 percent year on year to 52,545, according to Ministry of Tourism figures.
The number of travellers from Vietnam was up 45.86 percent in November, taking advantage of relaxed visa rules, while at the opposite end, some 26.99 percent fewer Koreans came to the Kingdom. Koreans were the largest group of arrivals in 2008.
