PARIS (AP) -- Air France says it will begin regular flights between Paris and Phnom Penh, Cambodia starting next March.

The three weekly flights between Paris and the former French protectorate will make Air France the first European air carrier to fly to Cambodia, said Khek Norinda, spokesman for the company that runs Cambodia's airports. Its two international airports are currently served only by Asian carriers.

The flights will have a connection in Bangkok and will begin March 27, 2011, Air France said in a statement Thursday.

Air France is part of the Air France-KLM group.
