With the recent increase in the price of aviation fuel, domestic airlines have increased air fares.
The Airlines Operators Association of Nepal, an umbrella organization of private airlines, has increased domestic fares from a minimum of Rs 10 to a maximum of Rs 85 with effect from Tuesday.
The association has stated that the minimum fare has been increased from Rs 10 to Rs 85 after the increase in the price of aviation fuel in the domestic air service.
As a result, air passengers are now required to pay higher airfare charges.
Nepal Oil Corporation had decided to increase the price of aviation fuel along with petroleum products by Rs 2 per liter on April 19.
According to the new airfare rates fixed by Airlines Operators Association of Nepal the old and new airfare charges are compared in the table below :
