The airline would be operating daily flights between Kathmandu and Delhi using an Airbus A319-100 leased from Bahrain Air. The company has not fixed the fare for Kathmandu-New Delhi-Kathmandu flight yet.
Alpine had planned to go international five months ago, but the proposed service never got off the ground due to permission hassles in India, it is learnt.
The airlines will also start flights to Kuala Lumpur in April 2010 followed by flights to Guangzhou in Chan and Doha in Qatar.
Flight operation on the eve of Nepal Tourism Year 2011 is expected to bolster the tourism industry of the country.
Alpine Air’s Airbus 319-100 has 132 seats - 12 business class seats and 120 economy class seats - suitable for regional flights.
Zenith Travels is Alpine's general sales agent (GSA) in Nepal while Inter-Group Enterprises has been appointed GSA for India.Source:.nepalnews.com
