Kathmandu, May 11
As scheduled previously, Nepal’s second international airport will open next week on May 16.
However, you will have to wait around a month to experience regular international flights from and to the Gautam Buddha International Airport.
Jazeera Airways, an airline from Kuwait, has already received a permit to conduct three flights between Bhairahawa and Kuwait City a week. However, it will operate regular flights from June 12 only, according to airport officials.
The airline says passengers need a certification of full-dose vaccination against Covid to board its flights. If they are not vaccinated, they will have to show a negative report of the PCR test conducted within the last 72 hours.
