– Luggage collection

Please note you might have to wait longer at the airport before you collect your luggage as the system is a bit not updated here in Nepal. Also if your luggage didn’t arrive on the same flight and is due to come in the next flight from your previous transit/destination. Please do not panic, just fill out the missing baggage form at the airport counter and they will give you a copy of the same with all the information/contact numbers. Usually, the airlines bring the missing luggage in their next flight.

– Using a trolley for free

Use of trolleys in the airport area is free for all, please feel free to use them. Avoid any person asking for money which looks as if they are helping you with your luggage by assisting/carrying your luggage in a trolley.

After finishing your visa formalities and collecting your luggage, you will find our airport guide/driver waiting for you at the main arrival gate with our company board or your name printed. Please avoid any other person or anyone who looks as if they are helping you out and later on ask for a tip (money). THEY ARE NOT OUR STAFF.
