During our trip through Southeast Asia, we had the pleasure of flying with AirAsia from Bangkok to Siem Reap and back. The experience was smooth, convenient, and offered great value, making it an essential part of our adventure. Here’s a look at our journey with AirAsia and how it contributed to our travel experience.
AirAsia Booking and Pre-Flight Experience
Booking our flights with AirAsia was straightforward and hassle-free. We found competitive prices and a user-friendly booking process on their website. AirAsia’s flexible options allowed us to customize our experience with add-ons like baggage allowance, seat selection, and in-flight meals, making it easy to tailor the journey to our needs. Our round trip tickets were under $150 each.
Check-in was a breeze, with the option to do so online or at the airport kiosks. We chose to check in using their mobile application, which saved us time at the airport. The mobile application was intuitive to use. We were also able to use the mobile application to upgrade our seats on our return flight.
Our AirAsia Flight from Bangkok to Siem Reap
Boarding the flight to Siem Reap was smooth, and we appreciated AirAsia’s commitment to punctuality. The plane was modern and clean, with comfortable seating for the short journey. Though the flight was less than an hour, the cabin crew made sure we were well taken care of, offering refreshments and snacks for purchase. The seats were as comfortable as any other economy class flights we have flown on with other airlines.
The views from the window as we descended into Siem Reap were spectacular. Flying over lush landscapes and catching a glimpse of the famous Angkor Wat complex was a breathtaking prelude to our Cambodian adventure.
Arrival in Siem Reap
Touching down in Siem Reap was a seamless experience. The small, welcoming airport made immigration and baggage claim quick and easy. We were out of the airport and on our way to explore Siem Reap in no time. Our hotel driver was waiting for us as we exited the airport.
The Return Journey to Bangkok
Our return flight to Bangkok was just as smooth as our initial journey. Once again, AirAsia delivered on punctuality and efficiency. After a day of exploring the ancient temples and vibrant markets of Siem Reap, we were ready for the comfort and reliability AirAsia provided. The upgraded seats on our return flight were inexpensive and offered us additional leg room.
The flight back to Bangkok offered another chance to reflect on our travels, and we appreciated the calm and relaxing atmosphere onboard. The views of Thailand as we approached Bangkok were a fitting end to our trip, with the bustling city skyline welcoming us back.

Flying with AirAsia from Bangkok to Siem Reap and back was a positive experience from start to finish. The airline provided excellent value for money, reliable service, and a stress-free travel experience that enhanced our trip.
