International Flights
Burma used to be the Hub of air travel in South East Asia
until the early 60s. Rangoon, Burma’s capital at that time was the best air
port in South East Asia and all the major air lines like Pan Am, North West,
KLM, BOAC, Air France etc operated direct flights to Burma. People from
Thailand, Singapore etc who wanted to travel to Europe have to travel first
to Burma to take the transit flight.
The situation change during the past half century. In the 1960s, Burma kept
itself separated from international community and since then travel to Burma
became less popular so most of the major USA and European air lines
gradually stopped operating to Burma until there are not a single direct
flight left operating to Burma from USA and Europe. Today, only air lines
from the neighboring countries fly direct to Burma. People from Europe and
USA have to travel to BKK or Singapore first to take a regional flight to
continue their travel to Burma.
However, bad things do not always last forever so
starting from 2002, Austrian air lines flied direct to Myanmar in winter as
a chartered flight. That was and still is the only direct flight from Europe
to Burma which makes travel to Myanmar easier than before. Nowadays, there
are 16 online airlines in Myanmar as follow:
