Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM) in Kathmandu is Nepal’s primary international gateway and typically functions as the country’s main hub for both full-service carriers and regional airlines. Major carriers and many low-cost regional operators use KTM for flights to South Asia and limited long-haul services, with ticket prices often perceived as mid-range but variable by season. The airport lies about 5–7 km from central Kathmandu; travel into the city usually takes 20–40 minutes by taxi or private car depending on traffic, with fares commonly in a modest local range, while local buses and shuttles can be slower but cheaper. Pros: convenient central location and many onward domestic connections; cons: compact terminal facilities that can feel crowded and sometimes face delays or congestion.

Lhasa is served by Lhasa Gonggar Airport (LXA), the region’s primary gateway and an important domestic hub for flights across Tibet and to major Chinese cities. Airlines operating here are typically Chinese carriers and some regional operators, with fares that can be higher than low-cost domestic routes due to altitude and limited competition. The airport lies roughly 60–70 km southwest of Lhasa city center; road transfer usually takes about 1–1.5 hours depending on traffic and weather. Options include airport shuttles, taxis, and pre-arranged hotel transfers, with shuttle fares generally modest and taxi rides costing more. Pros: direct access to the high-altitude plateau and regular scheduled services. Cons: longer transfer times, possible altitude-related service restrictions, and fewer international connections.
