By Chhetu Sherpa, Kathmandu, Jun. 1: Following the government's decision of reopening international flights in some countries, Turkish Airlines have been approved to resume its flights to Kathmandu from Thursday.
Rajan Pokharel, Director General at Civil Aviation Authority Nepal (CAAN), said that approval had been given to Turkish Airlines to operate flights only once a week post the Council of Ministers' decision to open limited passenger flight to Turkey, Qatar, and China.
"Even though we have not received official information yet, Qatar Airlines might open flights starting this week," he said, adding that China and Nepal Airlines had not provided any notice to CAAN about the resumption of flights.
CAAN is preparing to permit the national flag carrier to operate one flight each to Qatar and China in a week while other airlines will be permitted to operate only one flight weekly.
Meanwhile, CAAN has not made any decision yet as to the resumption of domestic flights. Owing to the resurging cases of COVID-19, the government had decided to halt all domestic flights until the next notice.
