Tribhuvan International Airport

Tribhuvan International Airport

Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA) is Nepal’s only international airport, located in the capital city, Kathmandu. It serves as the primary gateway for travelers to and from the country.

The airport offers basic facilities, including several check-in counters, immigration, and customs services. There are duty-free shops, a few restaurants, and lounges for passengers in both the international and domestic terminals. The airport has recently undergone upgrades to improve passenger services, but it remains somewhat small and crowded during peak times.

Airlines operating from Tribhuvan International Airport include Nepal Airlines, Qatar Airways, Turkish Airlines, Emirates, and several regional carriers, connecting Kathmandu to cities across Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. TIA also handles domestic flights to various parts of Nepal, including popular tourist destinations like Pokhara and Lukla.

Public transportation options are limited. Taxis are the primary mode of transport to and from the airport, and prepaid taxi services are available at fixed rates. Public buses run near the airport, but many travelers opt for private transfers or hotel-arranged transportation due to convenience. The airport is located around 6 kilometers from Kathmandu's city center, making it relatively easy to access.
