Druk Air and Bhutan Airlines are the only airlines that operates flights into Paro international airport. These two airlines operates a fleet of Airbus and flies to Bangkok (Thailand), Kathmandu (Nepal), Delhi, Calcutta and Guwahati(India), Dhaka (Bangladesh) and Singapore. Flight to Delhi via Kathmandu offers some of the most breathtaking views of the Bhutanese, Nepalese and Indian Himalayas. Close views of Jomolhari, Jitchu Drake, Kanchenjunga and Everest are some of the peaks that enthrall passengers on this flight.
During the monsoon season, unpredictable weather can disrupt flight schedules forcing delays. Travelers are therefore advised to include an extra day in their itinerary to accommodate such circumstances while planning to travel to Bhutan.
