Flights to Pokhara, Bharatpur and Tumlingtar have not opened yet. Although flights have not been able to take place in three destinations so far, flights have started in some destinations as soon as the weather clears up.
According to the airport, there are 115 domestic flights scheduled today. Since three days air flights have been affected due to the increase in air pollution in the capital along with other parts of the country. Last Friday and Saturday flights to Pokhara were also affected.
