FAQs - booking Nepal flights

  • Do I need a visa to travel to Nepal?

    For those that are Australian citizens or passport holders, you can either apply for a tourist visa for Nepal at an embassy before your trip, or at the airport once you have arrived. Most tourist visas will only let you stay in the country for a maximum of 90 days, and their prices vary depending on their duration.

  • I would like to visit Mount Everest during my trip. Which airport should I fly into?

    If one of the reasons that you are travelling to Nepal is to see Mount Everest, it is best to fly into Tenzing-Hillary Airport (LUA). There is no public transportation that connects the airport with the mountain’s base camps, so you will have to make the trek on foot if you plan on hiking. Alternatively, it is possible to fly into Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM), from which you can grab a helicopter tour of the mountain.

  • If I would like to visit Chitwan National Park, what is the best airport for me to arrive at?

    Bharatpur Airport (BHR) is the closest destination to Chitwan National Park and is just a 40 to 50min drive away. If you opt to fly into Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM) instead, you can go to the park via a tourist bus, which will take anywhere from 5 to 7h.

  • What is the best airport to fly into for those visiting the Bageshwari Temple?

    When visiting the Bageshwari Temple, the closest destination is Nepalgunj Airport (KEP). It is possible to drive between the two locations, which takes around 35min, or you can opt to grab a local train, which will take you several hours.

  • Which airport in Nepal is suitable for tourists?

    If you visit Nepal on tour, consider flying to Pokhara Airport (PKR), in Gandaki Province. The airport’s strategic location makes it an important gateway for many, from tourists visiting the Annapurna region and various sites like Phewa Lake to pilgrims travelling to Jomsom, Muktinath and other famous religious sites.

  • Is there an airport in Nepal serving as an airline hub?

    Kathmandu Airport is the only airport in Nepal that serves as an airline hub. The airport is the primary hub for Nepal’s flag carrier, Nepal Airlines. It also serves as a hub for several other airlines, such as Guna Airlines, Shree Airlines, Yeti Airlines and Tara Air. You can easily connect to other destinations from Kathmandu Airport, including Nepalgunj, Bhadrapur and Rajbiraj.

  • Which airport in Nepal can I fly to with a pet?

    Kathmandu Airport is the only airport allowing pets entry into Nepal. Two dogs or cats can enter the airport as air cargo, checked luggage or in the cabin. Since flights to Nepal from Australia have stopovers, avoid the India route, as the country does not permit non-residents to fly in with pets. Consider using Qantas and Virgin Airlines; they allow pets to fly in the cargo area.

  • Which airport in Nepal offers public transport services?

    If you want to use public transport from an airport in Nepal, consider flying into Kathmandu Airport; it offers bus services to various destinations within Kathmandu and the surrounding areas. The buses are budget-friendly but have stops along the way, resulting in a longer travel duration. Taxis, with negotiable fares, and shuttle services are also available outside the airport terminal.

  • How does KAYAK find such low prices on flights from Australia to Nepal?

    KAYAK is a travel search engine. That means we look across the web to find the best prices we can find for our users. With over 2 billion flight queries processed yearly, we are able to display a variety of prices and options on flights from Australia to Nepal.

  • How does KAYAK's flight Price Forecast tool help me choose the right time to buy my flight ticket from Australia to Nepal?

    KAYAK’s flight Price Forecast tool uses historical data to determine whether the price for a flight from Australia to Nepal is likely to change within 7 days, so travellers know whether to wait or book now.

  • What is the Hacker Fare option on flights from Australia to Nepal?

    Hacker Fares allow you to combine one-way tickets in order to save you money over a traditional return ticket. You could then fly from Australia to Nepal with an airline and back with another airline.

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight from Australia to Nepal?

    Sometimes travel dates aren't set in stone. If your preferred travel dates have some wiggle room, flexible dates will show you all the options when flying from Australia to Nepal up to 3 days before/after your preferred dates. You can then pick the flights that suit you best.

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Nepal

  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Nepal flight deals.
  • Due to the extensive distance between the two locations, flights to Nepal from Australia will almost always have a stopover. Some of the most convenient cities for travellers to stop in include Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, and Guangzhou.
  • Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM) is known for being the country’s only international airport and can be found in the centre of Nepal, making it a practical destination for those that would like to explore cities such as Kathmandu, Lalitpur, Bhaktapur, and Budhanilkantha. Keep in mind that you will first have to arrive at this airport before travelling to any other domestic locations.
  • To visit the southern region of the country, consider flying into Simara Airport (SIF). A small destination that only services flights through Buddha Airlines, Simara Airport is conveniently located near the cities of Birgunj and Jitpur Simara.
  • For those that would like to explore the western region of Nepal, it is possible to arrive at Surkhet Airport (SKH). From there, you will be within easy driving distance of cities like Jumla, Mugu, and Kalikot. Additionally, you will be close to the scenic rivers of Bheri and Bulbule Taal, as well as several skiing areas in the Himalayas.
  • If you plan on visiting Nepal for the purpose of exploring its green spaces and nature, consider flying into Bajura Airport (BJU), as this destination is close to hiking and bird watching areas in the Himalayan ranges, as well as additional tourist attractions, like the Jiulekmandu temple.
  • The main Australian airports offering flights to Nepal are Melbourne Airport (MEL), Sydney Airport (SYD) and Brisbane Airport (BNE). Consider flying from Sydney, which tends to have the most flights to Nepal.
  • If you are heading to the eastern side of Nepal, consider flying into Kathmandu Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM). You can then take a domestic flight to Biratnagar Airport (BIR). It’s a major gateway to eastern Nepal and a focus city for Buddha Air and Nepal Airlines, offering daily flights to and from Kathmandu Airport.

Airline reviews

I had the worst experience of my life in travel. Due to circumstances beyond my control (catastrophic traffic accidents on the highway between Gold Coast and Brisbane) I missed my flight for the first time ever. Because I booked through Kayak Singapore Airlines were not interested in helping me. They told me to contact the agent that I booked through. I was extremely stressed as I had connecting flights in Europe. First Kayak told me that the next available flights were in four days time. Then they told me that they could do it but at a cost of $2600 AUD. When I agreed he told me that he was having trouble getting it through Singapore’s system and he would contact me further once it had been done. When I had not heard from him after several hours, I phoned Kayak again, spoke to a different person who said he could do it for $8200. I declined and told him to cancel the booking. The worst part of this experience was that I had booked 5 flights altogether with Singapore including Premium Economy on two legs and Singapore cancelled all my flights including the return legs leaving me with having to completely reschedule my entire trip. Kayak refunded me $2000 from $5200, obviously leaving me out of pocket. This has left me feeling that I will never deal with Kayak or Singapore Airlines again.

Crew were so busy Anna so awesome. I was in a seat that got my food nearly last but the crew were Just awesome.

Lounge a access was excellent as was the attentiveness and service from the crew as always. The food and drink supplied were of good quality. The entertainment system had a good selection and I liked the mapping system supplied. However the screen wild have been bigger and the operation a little smoother to navigate. The seats were barely comfortable, but adequate.

Headwind delayed our flight which wasn’t the airlines fault

Horrendous. We upgraded and they took the money but cancelled one of our tickets. The recline action didn’t work on the seats for the flight from Singapore to London, pre booked meals but they seemed to have disappeared as well.. Phone customer service was horrendous. Took 5 phone calls and no fix. Craig at the airport was the only one who seemed to be able to get the ticket back.

Food could have been better. Too many passengers getting up and down all the time.

Delayed 1hour due to storm still didn't get window seat for third flight despite paying £240 extra to book them

It was an average flight. I would have expected more from this airline. Food, seats, service, etc was just average. I just give them some extra points for offering free WiFi on board with just a Krisflyer account.

Check in was easy through self-check-in kiosks just like domestic flights. Staff onboard were fantastic. Some "book the cook" good options weren't great, others really good. Entertainment options a bit limited to what I've experienced on Qantas. Overall a good flight though, especially for the price.

Could not really fault anything. We had a really short time between flights (about 45 mins), and had to get across the other side of the terminal. But we made it and crew were helpful. Food was good and service for the kids was great.

There was no screens on the flight, and no wifi with which we could connect to the internet and stream any content. This was a smaller plan so the business class seats were a bit tight. No hot towels or welcome drinks like when you fly on the bigger TG on the same route. The food was excellent, much better than the previous Thai airways business class meals. It was also nice that they offered eye masks for easy sleeping.

HAVING ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR PEOPLE TO BOARD ACCORDING TO GROUP IS ESSENTIAL N ENSURING N CUTTING OF QUEUES, EXCEPT FOR PRIORITY CLASS PASSENGERS ON A SEPARATE Q

Thai Royal First is very good. Easy check in , Private room in the first class lounge and escort from ticketing to the plane. Once on board crew was very polite, food was outstanding, and the ride was smooth as silk. Restrooms were especially clean. Great Experience

I'm not interested in improving the airline. Therefore, I won't explain this in more detail. Next time I'll try a different one.

Except that our flight was cancelled, by mail, and later moved to 12 hours prior, then the experience was good. In Bangkok we were offered a hotel, it was fine, but would have been nice to know in advance😉

I give EVA 5 stars in every category. I enjoy this airline and it's great team of employees. I always highly recommend EVA to friends and family and everyone.

Could have been better. I prefer Thai airlines only but it hasnt been reliable.

Extra seat belt across the chest 10 minutes before taking off and 15 minutes before landing seemed excessively safe.

I couldnt go on this flight and lost all my money over 1,000 UK Pounds as my visa to Myanmar was not accepted :(

Efficient like all the other flights with them. An outstanding budget airline!

Everything and everyone were excellent except for the charge for using WiFi; there was no escape from this fee except to not use it.

I love the comfortable business class seats. The service was excellent. Staff was friendly.

In economy, very cramped. Once the front seat was reclined it was almost impossible to get in and out of our seat. The personnel was excellent.

The crew, pilots and flight attendants were all amazing. What could be better is reinforcing that seats cannot be reclined at departure and landing. I had a person seated in front of me who had her seat all the way inclined, including during take-off - after the crew asked her to seat upright. Cathay Pacific should reinforce this safety request and perhaps penalize those who don't follow it. I felt very unsafe with this person limiting my space and perhaps putting my life in danger in the "unlikely" case of an emergency.

If I had blood clots, that window seat would've killed me for certain.

bad… no veg food was provided eventhough i pre ordered special meal

The crew were fine. I didn’t enjoy the food at all. I found it unappetising and really had trouble eating it. The comfort level was fine and our return flight is with Cathay Pacific but honestly I probably wouldn’t fly Cathay Pacific again.

We requested special assistance and Cathay Pacific provided it in Sydney, but we were completely forgotten about in Hong Kong - when we really needed the help to catch our connecting flight. Really disappointing service.

I traveled to Singapore for 5 days, I didn’t receive my luggage until the 3rd day. When I received my luggage was broken which they fixed it supposedly. I never had such a poor experience with the any other airline. I honestly think it should be a compensation for all of my losses and suffering that I went through.

The staff were excellent considering it was a jam packed flight. We had to wait nearly an hour for our baggage to appear on the carousel. That was a real shame.

We were taking the flight MU 8649 from Shanghai to Osaka and the original boarding gate was 20 and we didn’t receive any notification or broadcast about gate changes, and by the time we missed the original boarding time we check thr electric board and realized the gate was changed to 208 Also the flight was delayed by almost an hour and the crew member didn’t provide any explanation, after we finally boarded the aircraft was very hot, the crew member told me the air conditioning was not working and tried to calm passages down by offering iced water, all of us sat in the aircraft for another 40 mins before it finally took off

I was denied boarding at the Brisbane airport and it seems like I won’t get any refunds from the airline

In my return flight they couldn’t identify my ticket or boarding pass, I had to go to 3 different counters until I was able to get my boarding pass. The food was on, it was the bear minimum. They didn’t even recognise that I was a Muslim and can’t eat meat, chicken or pork. In one of the trays I believe they served me pork. The staff were very pleasant, but they need to be aware of their surroundings more carefully, one of them stuck her lower belly right into my face! I was shocked and very uncomfortable.

Overall I had good experience with China Southern airline. Nothing to claim. I hoped they could improve the meal quality that is.

The connection between LA and Atlanta was too much stress

The crew were kind, patient and responsive. The service was excellent, even though we travelled the cheapest economy class. We arrived at our destination 40 min early, which for a 15+ hour flight is a great bonus. The boarding seemed a bit "loose", but got us boarded on time, and the plane was off exactly @ 0:30 hrs.

The airport didn‘t give me the ticket. I called customer service to ask for a refund but they kept giving me a perfunctory response and refused to refund me.

Food was terrible. Fish was equal to a sausage and scrumbled eggs were terribly green with a quite weird fllavour. Everybody with me hated all options. The best food was the bread with butter.

We bought an upgrade to Business Class at the airport but did not realise that it was not the regular Business Class. The 787 Dreamliner was very dated with the seats not as comfortable as other airlines and some things were almost coming off. We were then told that because it was an upgrade at the airport, we get to sit in the BC cabin but will be served economy class food. So when everyone else got served in china ware, we were given the tray you got in economy class. The wifi does not work. It only connects to watch movies (which is the same as what you find in the ICE) but the internet does not work. The cabin crew while were friendly, were not responsive. Overall, I will never fly China Southern again.

No red vine, no whiskey, no vodka. No that I wanted all of them at once but still...

They wouldn't let me on the plane. The 3rd party apparently didn't pay for the tickets properly?

Overall experience is good but if the food menu can change to authentic Malaysia food will be good. I.e. Nasi Lemak, Char Kueh Tiew and etc

OK seats comfortable, easy boarding/embarking, excellent connection to domestic Malaysia flight with baggage checked through without customs. Catering especially drinks borderline ok luckily less important aspect

AC not working, just slowly blowing room temperature air. Long taxi time does not help as well. Sweating all over the whole trip.

Did not take as cancelled 3 time so took another airline

chaos boarding. Crew in business class seemed short staffed and lacking in attention to details initially, but did improve during flight.

Delayed, not enough information. Had to ask for refreshments, crew could have been more proactive

No recognition for one World Emerald member. I got row 1 in business class and it was pathetic. No leg space, cramped space, less recline

I had purchased extra leg room for all legs of the flight but due to a delay in leaving Perth I was put on another flight but with Emirates. My luggage was initially lost but later found and my suitcase was broken. I ended up losing my upgrades

I asked for more food as i was too hungry or I probably missed MAS onboard food. Both flight-attendants fulfilled my request by giving me both menus - the Nasi Lemak & the chicken noodles. Both tasted very nice. Thanks Mas. I think asked for skyjuice 5x & tomato juice twice
