KATHMANDU: The private carrier Buddha Air has extended its commercial flights from two to three days a week from Kathmandu to Varanasi of India.

According to the Buddha Air, there will be flights to Varanasi from Kathmandu’s Tribhuvan International Airport on every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

Issuing a press statement today, the privately-owned airline expressed its belief that three flights a week would further facilitate passengers.

Furthermore, the Buddha Holidays, a sister organization of the Buddha Air, has also holiday packages for destinations like Sarnath and Ayodhya in India.

Buddha Air is hopeful that these packages would provide additional assistance to the passengers to perform Sohra Sraddha in Gaya of India.

Sohra Sraddha is a 16-day period in the Hindu calendar during which people pay homage to their ancestors.

Varanasi (also known as Kashi) could be reached by a 50-minutes flight from Kathmandu. The initial one-way fare to Varanasi is priced at Rs 11,360.
