Does Buddha Air fly from Kolkata to Kathmandu?

By Base Camp Tours, licensed Nepal travel agency (Tourism License 3121/080) · Updated · 1 min read

The short answer

Yes. Buddha Air lists a Kathmandu to Kolkata service between Tribhuvan International Airport and Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose International Airport in Kolkata, with a flight time of about one hour thirty minutes. Its route page shows services on several days of the week, but it gives conflicting figures for the exact number of weekly flights, so confirm days and times on the airline site before booking.

A direct flight takes a fraction of the time of the overland journey. If you are travelling with a tour, ask your operator to align your hotel check-in and pickup with the flight timings.
