Druk Air is the primary airline serving Bhutan. To secure flights, especially given fluctuating schedules and seasonal demand, it's essential to book your Bhutan trip well in advance, with confirmed entry and exit dates.
Flight Connection
A day before the Druk Air flight to Bhutan departs, it would be highly handy to arrive in Bangkok, Delhi, or Kathmandu. Typically, Druk Air flights leave early in the morning. If you miss the trip to Bhutan, we will try our best to get you on the following flight and extend your visa, but we cannot be held accountable. Any further expenses will be your responsibility.
We would also advise against booking a flight that connects on the same day for the return trip unless you have a ticket that allows for some flexibility. Schedules for Druk Air flights are frequently changed at the last minute and are dependent on the weather in the highlands.
Flight Frequency and Air Fares
The majority of our national airline's destinations are served by multiple weekly flights, albeit the frequency and timing of these flights varies by season. Current flight schedules and pricing (including the airline's cancellation policy) are available on the Druk Air website: www.drukair.com.bt. When making travel plans, please visit the website or get in touch for the most recent information. Please let us know if you would like the current flight schedule.
Scenic Flights
Winter, when the skies are usually fairly clear, is the perfect time to observe the breathtaking alpine scenery along the way. The most breathtaking vista of the Himalayan Mountain Ranges, including the Everest region, may be seen when flying from Kathmandu to Paro. When the weather is clear, you may see the mountain Kanchenjunga for a while on all routes. Traveling by air to and from Bhutan is a once-in-a-lifetime event that should be treasured.
