Sihanoukville Just Got a Little Closer

Sihanoukville Airport, the gateway to the Cambodian coastal town of Sihanoukville, has reopened after renovations. It's currently set up to only handle small planes flying domestic routes, but there are plans to expand the runway by the end of the year. The town is just 115 miles from Phnom Penh, but you can expect a route between those cities on Siem Reap Airways, as well as one between Siem Reap and Sihanoukville, also presumably on Siem Reap Airways (although the airline's website has yet to post information on the latter route.)

Sihanoukville's tourist facilities are still developing; it's not Phuket. But the comparably so-so beach is perhaps trendier for that fact alone. It takes a real thinking man to love it. And the crap squid helps its cause.
