Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM) in Kathmandu is Nepal’s main international gateway and typically functions as the country’s busiest hub, handling a mix of full-service carriers and regional low-cost airlines. It’s located about 6–7 km east of Thamel/central Kathmandu, with road transfer times usually around 20–40 minutes depending on traffic; taxis and ride-hailing services are common (fares can vary), while airport shuttles and private transfers are also available. Expect basic but improving facilities and often crowded terminals at peak times, which can affect comfort and processing speed. The airport’s convenience for central Kathmandu is a major plus, though limited infrastructure and occasional congestion are downsides to plan for.
