Techo International Airport in Cambodia to Open in July?

The airport, which is being developed at a cost of $1.5 billion, is a joint venture between the Cambodian government and the Overseas Cambodian Investment Corp.

The new infrastructure is part of a broader effort to enhance Cambodia's tourism capacity, which has shown significant growth in recent years.

The Techo International Airport spans 2,600 hectares (6,425 acres), making it one of the largest airports in Southeast Asia.

The building will utilize a lightweight steel grid shell and an innovative screening system that allows natural daylight into the terminal, creating a welcoming environment for travelers.

Upon completion, the airport will have the capacity to handle 13 million passengers annually.

However, the airport is designed for future expansion, with plans to increase capacity to 30 million passengers by 2030 and up to 50 million passengers by 2050. This growth is expected to accommodate the increasing influx of international travelers, as Cambodia continues to develop as a key tourist destination in Southeast Asia.

Techo International Airport will be the second major airport to open in Cambodia in the last two years, following the Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport, which began operations in 2023.
