Getting from Luang Prabang to Siem Reap

Getting from Luang Prabang to Siem Reap

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has flown Laos airlines route Luang Prabang to Siem Reap? Any advice on the safest way to get from LP to SR?

=> In terms of safety Lao are on a par with any of the other regional carriers... modern fleet of ATR Turbo Props and A320's... which means they're as safe as any other airline which can fly you from Luang Prabang to Siem Reap by whatever route... and all of those are significantly safer than any road option you might choose. No concerns.

=> Yes Capn but, it is just that when you have a "problem" you tend never to have any more. Suppose I am cynical because I like ships.

=> We flew with Lao last year from the Plain of Jars - Vientiane - Pakse and eventually on to Siem Reap and they were fine. If anything their aircraft interior decor is completely over the top with something that resembles a cross between a latter-day electric cool-aid acid test and being immersed in a tropical fish tank. Have to say though they are one of the only airlines in the world that I've flown with that consistently departed early once everyone had checked in.

=> fantastic, thanks for the replies. flights booked and I feel alot better about it now
