TARAsia Fan:
Ap? This is your department. My father went to Siem Reap a few years ago and I do recall he went through Hong Kong and Phnom Penh.

According to wikipedia:
The town is 7 km from the Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport (IATA code REP). Siem Reap is accessible by direct flights from Phnom Penh, Sihanoukville, Singapore, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Vientiane, Luang Prabang, Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Hong Kong, Seoul-Incheon, Pusan, Kunming, Kaohsiung and Taipei, and by land from Phnom Penh and the Thai border. It’s also accessible by boat and bus from Phnom Penh.

Thanks for that info Redwings :tup:
I was getting confused when only Bangkok kept getting mentioned. Many of those places listed have direct flights from either Aussie or NZ, so I guess most of them have been ruled out already simply cos they don't depart/arrive at the right time of day
Neobie:
I've looked at flights through Singapore, but the earliest they can get into Siem Reap is on Saturday late afternoon, almost a day behind the Bangkok flight.
But I think what we should look at is whether teams go directly from Santiago to Siem Reap, as opposed to having a leg in between. The latter is probably the case given the speed in which teams can actually get there; even if there were earlier flights through other cities, taking the Bangkok option would leave racers about two days idle before they're actually spotted in Cambodia.
It's a type of proving by disproving, I guess?

Neobies awake :jumpy:
I know peach is lurking around here somewhere maybe she can confirm that Justin said that teams arrived dirty & exhausted at the Santiago airport which may mean they needed a rest day afterwards?
