All Singapore Airlines flights to Thailand and Cambodia continue to operate normally despite a deadly border disupute between the two Southeast Asian countries.

The carrier said its top priority is the safety of its customers and employees, The Straits Times reported.

"We will continue to monitor the situation closely and adjust our flights where necessary," the spokesperson added.

In addition, flights between Thailand and Cambodia are not affected as Cambodia’s declared restricted area is limited and does not significantly impact air traffic departing from Thailand, according to The Nation newspaper.

Escalating military clashes along the Thai-Cambodian border have begun to take a toll on Thailand's tourism industry, triggering a surge in accommodation cancellations across provinces near the fighting.

The Australia, Canada, U.K. and U.S. governments have warned their citizens to exercise caution while traveling to Thailand and Cambodia after border clashes.

Thailand and Cambodia, popular destinations for millions of foreign tourists, have been locked in their bloodiest conflict in years over their disputed border, with over 30 people confirmed killed and more than 200,000 displaced.
