Kathmandu, May 6
No domestic flights will take place on the voting day of local elections, coming Friday (May 13).
Airline operators say they will not operate domestic flights as the government will close public transportation that day. However, international flights will not be affected, according to them.
Buddha Air, the leading domestic airline, has already issued a travel alert in this regard. Likewise, Yeti Airlines, another popular company, will also not operate the flights, according to the company’s spokesperson Sudarshan Bartaula.
Private vehicles will have to obtain a pass from the concerned district administration office to ply that day.
