Kathmandu, September 25, 2023 - Brace yourselves, adventure seekers, as the skies above Nepal have just gotten a lot more exciting! The much-anticipated air adventure from Manthali to Lukla is officially underway, thanks to the soaring efforts of Tara, Summit, and Sita Airlines.
In a daring move that promises to redefine travel experiences in the region, these aviation trailblazers have launched thrilling flights that whisk travelers from the charming town of Manthali to the heart-pounding adventure hub of Lukla. This bold endeavor has been kick-started to alleviate the soaring congestion and traffic snarls that have gripped Kathmandu Airport during the bustling tourist season.
But here's the twist - you won't be flying the entire way! Instead, prepare for an unforgettable journey as these airlines offer a unique blend of air and road travel. After a scenic takeoff from Manthali, foreign tourists will be ferried by road to the breathtaking Lukla, ensuring that no matter how you get there, the journey itself is an adventure worth cherishing.
For thrill-seekers and nature lovers, the wait is finally over! The aviation companies have left no stone unturned to ensure that you can enjoy the stunning landscapes and unparalleled beauty of the region from both the air and the ground.
What's more, after a two-year hiatus due to various challenges, these airlines are gearing up to provide daily flights to Lukla, making it a breeze for you to experience the magic of Nepal's tourist season. As long as Mother Nature cooperates, there will be no shortage of opportunities to soar above the majestic Himalayas.
Manthali Airport, nestled close to Kathmandu, stands out as a gem in the Eastern region. Equipped with aviation fuel facilities for small aircraft, it even doubles as an emergency landing spot. Surprisingly, despite its proximity, none of the airlines have been operating regular flights between Manthali and Kathmandu. But hope remains alive as these companies have expressed their willingness to kickstart regular services, pending the approval of local authorities and federal and provincial parliament members.
However, the only missing piece of the puzzle seems to be the passengers themselves. So, adventurers, explorers, and thrill-seekers, the call of the Himalayas beckons - it's time to embark on a one-of-a-kind journey from Manthali to Lukla. Are you ready to make memories that will last a lifetime?
Don't miss out on this exhilarating opportunity to conquer the skies and explore the rugged beauty of Nepal like never before. It's an adventure you won't want to miss!
