Kathmandu: After Jet Airways halted its Kathmandu bound flights, Nepal Airlines Corporation (NAC), and Indian airline companies, Indigo Air and SpiceJet, have applied for new slots to operate flights on the Kathmandu-Delhi sector.
A senior official from NAC, seeking anonymity, said the national flag carrier has already received necessary slots to operate flights at the Indira Gandhi International Airport in New Delhi. “We are now finalising the new documents for the process.”
After receiving a slot from the concerned airport, the airline company has to submit an application to the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal (CAAN) for rescheduling its flight time at the Tribhuvan International Airport.
However, NAC is yet to submit its application at CAAN to reschedule its flight time. Aviation sector stakeholders had expected NAC to immediately take advantage of the situation arising from Jet Airways’ collapse to expand its business. But it was only after much dilly-dallying that NAC has finally prepared to add flights on the Kathmandu-Delhi route.
