Beijing is served primarily by Beijing Capital International (PEK) and Beijing Daxing International (PKX), with a smaller role for domestic-focused Nanyuan (now largely replaced). Capital has long been the city’s main international hub, hosting flag carrier Air China and many global airlines, while Daxing—designed for high capacity—typically handles a growing mix of international and domestic services including low-cost carriers. Capital sits about 25 km northeast of downtown and Daxing about 46 km to the south; expect 30–60 minute journeys to central Beijing depending on traffic. Transport options include express train and metro links (fares roughly modest), airport shuttle buses and taxis or ride-hailing (fares vary by distance). Capital can feel more established and convenient for transfers within traditional alliances, whereas Daxing offers modern facilities and may be quieter but can add journey time to the city; both can be busy at peak times.

Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM) in Kathmandu is Nepal’s primary international gateway and typically serves full-service carriers alongside regional and low-cost airlines; it also functions as the main hub for domestic connections to the Himalayas. The airport lies roughly 6–8 km from the city center, with road transfers usually taking 20–40 minutes depending on traffic; taxis are common and can be expected to cost in the range of modest local fares, while private car or hotel transfers are also widely used. Facilities are relatively basic compared with larger international hubs, so passengers often trade short transfer times for more limited lounges and services. Pros: convenient central location and good links to domestic flights; cons: frequent congestion, variable queuing times, and constrained terminal space.

The cost of a one-way flight from Beijing to Kathmandu ranges from $188 (December 2026) to $356 (June 2027). On average, the ticket price is about $241–$476.
