After completing 28 years in Nepal’s aviation sector, Yeti Airlines has now entered its 29th year of commercial operations, having served nearly 900,000 passengers last year. The airline launched its commercial operations in 1998 and has since grown into one of Nepal’s leading private sector carriers. As it steps into its 29th year in the aviation industry, the company says it remains dedicated to providing safe, quality, efficient, and passenger-focused services.
The volume of passengers the airline has served further highlights how much people depend on domestic flights for their travel needs. Although roads remain the primary means of transportation in Nepal, domestic air travel serves as an alternative to going by road. It gives people a quicker way to reach their destination, particularly on routes between Kathmandu and other locations in both directions.
