Booking flights
Booking flights to Nepal is relatively easy, we can also help you. Most flights depart from HEATHROW or Gatwick airport but there are flights via Manchester. Please note the following:
Your destination airport is KATHMANDU.There are NO direct flights to Nepal. Many flights are via either India (e.g. through Delhi) or the Middle East (e.g. Bahrain, Abu Dhabi, Doha). Transferring from one flight to another is usually a simple matter of being guided to a transfer lounge with cafes, shopping, toilets etc before boarding your next flight. It also gives you a break.
With the time difference you will normally arrive in Nepal the following day
