FAQs for booking flights from Sydney to Kathmandu

  • What special assistance is available for people with disabilities at Sydney’s Kingsford Smith Airport?

    If you have a disability, it’s best to allow extra time to head to Airport Services before your flight departs from Sydney’s Kingsford Smith Airport; go to Level 3 of the International Terminal (T1) and follow the signs for Administration. They will provide you with a sunflower lanyard that communicates to staff members you may need extra assistance. In addition to this, it’s wise to inform your travel agent or airline of any special assistance you may require as they will make arrangements for you before you arrive at the airport.

  • Are there any open access lounges at Sydney Airport?

    Sydney Airport has a number of lounges spread across Levels 1, 2 and 3 of the International Terminal (T1). If you don’t have an airline membership but do have an American Express card, you may be able to enjoy free access to American Express Lounge located on Level 1. Alternatively, Plaza Premium Lounge (on Level 2) accepts walk-ins with no airline membership required. Prices start at about A$ 37.80 per person. If you are considering either of these options, it’s worth booking online as this allows you to confirm the opening hours and availability in relation to your flight schedule.

  • Can I fly non-stop from Sydney to Kathmandu?

    No, there are no non-stop flights on this route so you will have to connect through another city. If you wish to make the trip as short as possible, look for a flight with only one brief stopover – for example, Emirates offers flights from Sydney to Kathmandu via Dubai, while Malaysia Airlines flies via Kuala Lumpur.

  • What are the modes of transport for getting away from the airport in Kathmandu?

    There are not many options for you to choose from when it comes to travelling between the airport and the city in Kathmandu. Your best bet is to book a hotel that offers an airport shuttle, as this will make things much easier and less stressful for you. If your hotel does not organize airport transfers, you can order a pre-paid taxi from one of the desks in the Arrivals Hall – avoid picking up a taxi in front of the airport or at least make sure to negotiate the cost before getting in. There are also public buses stopping in front of the airport, but these are not recommended because of the language barrier and their very irregular schedule.

  • Is there a hotel close to Kathmandu Tribhuvan International Airport?

    If you want to stay at a hotel near the airport in Kathmandu, pick from the Hotel Meridian Suite, Regal Airport Hotel, Summit Residency or Palagya Hotel.

If you want to book a hotel after your flight from Sydney to Kathmandu, you can do this at the Hotel Reservation Info Counter in the Arrivals Hall.
