Useful tips for plane travellers
• Opt for flight combinations that allow for a longer layover in Abu Dhabi or other major hubs to relax at the airport lounges, especially if flying with Etihad, as this can enhance your travel experience on the long journey.
• Upon arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu, proceed to the Visa on Arrival counter before heading to baggage claim – this can save you valuable time since the process typically moves faster than expected.
• Expect taxi fares from Tribhuvan International Airport to the city center of Kathmandu to be around NPR 700-1500 (approximately £4-£9); it's advisable to agree on the fare beforehand or insist on using the meter to avoid overcharging.
