If
travelling over peak periods, book flights months in advance as routes fill up.
Only a small number of international airlines fly to Nepal, including Qatar,
KLM and Malaysian.
Depending
on the time of year, the cost of airfares vary. The timing of the high, low and
shoulder seasons differ from airline to airline, and don’t always coincide with
tourist seasons.
Note:
Nepal’s airport is extremely old and inefficient, so be prepared to wait for
immigration/visas, baggage, and baggage checks.
