QATAR airways based in Doha has become the first middle eastern airline to fly to Yangon directly from Doha, thus connecting Yangon to Middle East, Europe and Indian Subcontinent and Africa. When I visited their offices opposite traders hotel, they were offering 600 usd round trip tickets to joburg and capetown from yangon.. not a bad deal..
For me the interest was to fly to Cochin, which I could do via Doha with good connections. The other way to get to Cochin was via singapore.. you choose

Apart from the state owned Myanma Airways, considered the worst airline in the world, there are two other private airlines, yangon airways and air mandalay, both shared by the government with foreign investors. a new airline has joined the increasing tourist trade: Air Bagan which flies not only the usual tourist routes but places only myanma airways used to fly for example pu tao in the kachin state.
they use atr 42 and i saw one fokker 100 with their lotus logo on its tail at yangon airport recently
