Flights to Kathmandu

Fares to Kathmandu and beyond, quoted by a specialist.

Fly into Kathmandu and you land at Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM). This page is about the city: the airport, the way into town, and the best time to go. For entry rules and the wider country, see the Nepal links at the end of this page.

From the airport to Kathmandu

The airport is only a few kilometers from central Kathmandu, but the roads are busy. App-based ride services are generally easier than street taxis, or arrange a pickup through your host.

Mountain flights are often delayed or canceled by weather, so leave buffer days.

Cheap flights to Kathmandu: the best time to fly

Fares peak from mid-September to November, when the Dashain and Tihar festivals overlap with autumn trekking, and again in the US summer. The monsoon runs from about June to September.

Flying to Kathmandu: quick answers.

How do I find cheap flights to Kathmandu?

Tell us your route and dates, and a specialist compares fares across airlines, nearby dates and connecting routes for your trip to Kathmandu, then replies with a quote, often the same day. Being flexible by a few days, and avoiding the busiest weeks, usually gives the most options.

When are flights to Kathmandu cheapest?

Fares peak from mid-September to November, when the Dashain and Tihar festivals overlap with autumn trekking, and again in the US summer. The monsoon runs from about June to September. Fares change daily, so there is no single best date. A specialist checks the days either side of yours.

Can I get a one-way or round-trip flight to Kathmandu?

Yes. We quote round-trip, one-way and multi-city trips to Kathmandu. A round trip is often the simplest on international routes, but it is worth asking us to price both, especially if your return date is open.

Are there student flights or student airfare discounts to Kathmandu?

We quote student-friendly fares to Kathmandu with flexible dates around term breaks, and we look for any student fares the airlines offer. Availability depends on the airline and route, so ask for a quote with your school dates. On eligible bookings you can also pay over time.

Do you offer group or missionary flights to Kathmandu?

Yes. Group pricing starts at 10 travelers, and a coordinator can request one quote for a church, mission or humanitarian team heading to Kathmandu. Every traveler can pay for their own seat. Smaller teams still get a specialist quote.

Can I pay for my flight to Kathmandu over time?

On eligible bookings you can choose to pay in monthly installments at checkout. The provider decides eligibility and shows the exact terms before you agree, and a credit check may apply.

Do you compare prices and show flight deals for Kathmandu?

A TravelSource specialist compares fares for your exact route and dates rather than showing one “from” price, because fares to Kathmandu change with the season and the day of the week. We can also add a stay, a car or an airport transfer to the same quote.

Can my team or family pay over time for Kathmandu?

On eligible bookings you can pay in monthly installments through Affirm. Every traveler pays for their own seat, and Affirm shows the terms at checkout. A credit check may apply.

Do you arrange hotels, cars and transfers in Kathmandu?

Yes. Add stays, cars, transfers or travel cover when you request your quote and our travel desk arranges everything together.
