KATHMANDU: As Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA) in Kathmandu begins its daily closures for upgradation work, international flight operations at Gautam Buddha International Airport in Lumbini have surged.

With TIA now closed for 10 hours each day for expansion, flights are being redirected to Gautam Buddha International, leading to a notable increase in passenger traffic.

As international operations at Bhairahawa intensify, airlines such as Qatar Airways, Jazeera Airways, Nepal Airlines, Thai AirAsia, and FlyDubai are among those now arriving at the airport.
