Domestic carriers affiliated to Airline Operators Association of Nepal (AOAN) offered a discount of 10 per cent on base fare targeting the festive season.
Issuing a press note today, the AOAN has announced 10 per cent discount on airfare during the festive season – Dashain, Tihar and Chhath – from September 29 to November 3. The AOAN has brought the discount offer to provide some relief to passengers, according to the association. “However, the discount is not applicable to airport tax and fuel surcharge amount as the base fare does not include fuel surcharge and airport tax.”
The passengers have to purchase their tickets from the ticket counters of the concerned airline companies to get the discount offer, the press note reads, adding that the discount is not available for tickets purchased from general sales agents (GSA) of the airlines. “The discount will be provided to Nepali passengers only and not the foreign passengers.”
The discount offer is offered by the member airline companies of AOAN including Buddha Air, Saurya Airlines, Sita Air, Summit Air, Yeti Airlines, Simrik Airlines and Tara Air. The association has 15 member airlines. Ten of them are helicopter operators.
The Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation is, however, preparing to provide 50 per cent discount on airfare for passengers above 70 years.
The airline operators also confirmed that passengers will not face shortage of air tickets as most of the airlines have expanded their fleet this year. Likewise, the AOAN has also said that chopper operators will be available for search and rescue flights even during the festival season.
