Nepal finally gets a piece of the budget airline pie with the launch of FlyYeti, a low cost international airline.

International air connections with Nepal are limited to the main big players (Cathay Pacific, Thai and Singapore, to name a few) who all charge high prices for flights into Himalaya kingdom.

Searching for a discounted fare into Nepal was like climbing Everest on the back of a Yak. Now you can call off the search for a bargain flight in and out of Kathmandu as Air Arabia has launched a subsidiary airline - “FlyYeti”, Nepal’s first low-cost carrier.

FlyYeti will allow pasengers an inexpensive way to connect Kathmandu with India,the far east, South Asia and central Asia.

Its welcome news for budget travellers and backpackers who want to experience the great heights of the Himalaya.
