Internal flight in Nepal

 

Nepal is a pretty small country if we compare to Canada, UK or Australia. But being in the mountains, the road transportation are usually very long and travelling from on point to another can last a long time. For example, the distance between Katmandu and Pokhara is about 200 km and the travel by bus last about 7 hours and can be far longer if there is an accident on the road. For this reason, many tourists will choose the option of taking the plane to reach other part of Nepal. This article is focused on giving information about all possibilities of travelling by plane inside Nepal. Most of the flight starts or go to Kathmandu or Pokhara. There are a few airlines offering internal flights in Nepal.
