Plaza Premium Group (PPG) has opened Plaza Premium First and Plaza Premium Lounge at Techo International Airport in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The launch strengthens the group’s presence in South-east Asia and aligns with Cambodia’s sustainable development goals.
The new airport has been designed to incorporate eco-friendly technologies and energy-efficient systems.
Plaza Premium First, with capacity for 110 guests, marks the brand’s debut in Cambodia, following locations in Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Macau, Vancouver, and Jakarta. The lounge features interiors inspired by Cambodian culture, including decorative motifs and artwork by artist and sustainability advocate Bill Bensley.
Facilities include two private VIP rooms and massage services, while the menu features local flavours such as the KTI Passion Mood Mocktail and Passion Paradise Cocktail made with Khmer ingredients.
Plaza Premium Lounge, with 120 seats, offers a calm setting that highlights Cambodian art and cuisine. Guests can sample dishes such as Beef Lok Lak and Fish Amok, alongside Pursat Orange Juice and Koh Kroubey’s Jasmine Tea. The lounge showcases works by artist Dina Chhan and welcomes guests with ambassadors dressed in the traditional Sampot.
The new lounges reflect PPG’s approach to airport hospitality by combining operational consistency with local culture and design.
“Cambodia’s Techo International Airport represents a critical hub in the region and offers exciting opportunities for PPG, given the airport’s expansion plan with two additional runways to be completed in phases, passenger capacity is expected to reach 45 million by 2050,” said Cavin Loh, regional general manager (Southeast Asia) of PPG.
