Unable to find information about the schedule of direct flights from
Lhasa is served by Lhasa Gonggar Airport (LXA), the region’s main gateway and a modest international/regional hub that typically handles flights to major Chinese cities and occasional international charters. Carriers tend to include China’s state and regional airlines, with fares often perceived as higher than low-cost domestic routes due to limited competition and higher operating costs at altitude. The airport sits about 62 km (roughly 1–1.5 hours) southwest of Lhasa city center; road transfers are the norm, with airport buses and taxis available—expect bus rides to take around 90–120 minutes and taxis to be faster but more expensive. Pros: scenic approach, direct access for travelers to Tibet; cons: longer transfer times, limited public-transport frequency and altitude-related considerations that can affect comfort.
