Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA) has resumed its regular services today.
According to TIA General Manager Hansharaj Pandey, the flights both towards domestic and international services were resumed on Wednesday (September 10) evening.
The TIA Management Office has coordinated with the security forces to facilitate the movement of passengers.
However, the airport is currently not in a position to increase the number of regular flights.
In light of the ongoing prohibitory order in the Kathmandu Valley, passengers are required to carry valid identity cards while traveling to the airport.
To assist tourists and guests, the Nepal Tourism Board has arranged a shuttle bus service to take them to their respective destinations.
Dipendra Kumar Karna, Information Officer at Buddha Air, confirmed that flights have been fully regularized since this morning. Airlines have been instructed to prioritize the travel of passengers who were stranded both at TIA and in other locations.
The airport was closed on September 9 following disruptions caused by the Gen Z demonstrations. A meeting of the TIA Security Board on Wednesday resolved to resume operations starting at 3:30 pm the same day.
Passengers are advised to contact their respective airlines before heading to the airport.
TIA normally operates daily from 6 am to 1 am.
On the domestic front, 21 airlines, including 12 helicopter operators, conduct over 250 flights daily. Internationally, 30 airlines, including three Nepali carriers, operate approximately 100 flights per day from the airport.
