Distance & flight time from BBM
Battambang Airport
Battambang Airport answers to the code BBM and sits in Cambodia's northwest, serving a city that ranks as the country's second most populous urban center. The site sits a mere 59 feet above sea level, and aviation records list a single runway. Battambang province surrounds the field, which historically offered a link between the city and Phnom Penh rather than serving as a hub in its own right. Databases covering BBM stay limited to the essentials: one runway, low elevation, and a location firmly within Battambang, without the deeper traffic or terminal statistics that larger Cambodian airports carry.
