KATHMANDU: To assist visitors during the current travel disruptions, the Nepal Tourism Board (NTB) has launched a special shuttle bus service for international and domestic tourists flying through Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA).

The free service—organized with support from the private sector, Nepal Army, TIA authorities, and the Department of Immigration—offers continuous transport between the airport and major hotel hubs in Kathmandu.
