Airlines flying Hyderabad to Kathmandu
There is no non-stop from Hyderabad to Kathmandu, so every itinerary involves at least one connection. The fastest and most frequent routing is via Delhi (DEL), where Air India, IndiGo and Nepal Airlines all operate the short DEL–KTM leg. Akasa Air and IndiGo handle the Hyderabad–Delhi feeder. Connections via Mumbai work too but typically add time. For the smoothest experience, book both legs on one ticket so baggage transfers and missed-connection protection apply automatically.
Cheapest time to fly & book
Nepal's tourism peaks during October–November (autumn trekking) and March–April (spring), when fares firm up. The monsoon months (June–August) are cheapest but bring heavy rain. As of May 2026, indicative round-trip economy fares range roughly ₹12,000–22,000 depending on season and how far ahead you book, with one-ways from around ₹7,000. Book trekking-season dates 6–8 weeks ahead. Prices are indicative — check live fares in the FlightGPT chat for current availability.
Flight duration & routing
The quickest 1-stop journeys run about 6 hours 30 minutes to 8 hours total via Delhi, where the HYD–DEL leg takes ~2 hours and the DEL–KTM sector about 1 hour 40 minutes, plus a layover. Great-circle distance is roughly 1,360 km but the actual route via Delhi is longer. Kathmandu is 15 minutes ahead of India (Nepal uses the unusual UTC+5:45 offset), so the clock change is negligible. Morning departures from Hyderabad can have you in Kathmandu by early afternoon with a tight connection.
Baggage & fares
Baggage allowances depend on the carrier combination. Air India typically offers 25 kg checked on international economy, while IndiGo international fares include 20 kg. If your itinerary mixes a domestic and international leg on separate tickets, the domestic Indian leg may default to a lower 15 kg allowance — check carefully. Trekkers heading to Everest Base Camp or Annapurna should pre-purchase extra kilos for boots, sleeping bags and gear. Vegetarian meals (VGML) can be requested in advance on Air India and Nepal Airlines.
Airports & terminals
Hyderabad (HYD) — Rajiv Gandhi International Airport has a single integrated terminal, about 25 km south of the city. Kathmandu (KTM) — Tribhuvan International Airport sits about 6 km east of central Kathmandu, with a single terminal handling both domestic and international. The airport is compact; immigration can be slow during peak trekking season. From KTM, pre-paid taxis or hotel shuttles reach Thamel in about 20–30 minutes. If connecting in Delhi, note that domestic arrivals and international departures may require a terminal transfer — allow at least a 3-hour layover.
Visa & entry for Indians
Indian nationals do not need a visa for Nepal. You can enter freely with a valid Indian passport or even a government-issued photo ID (Aadhaar is not accepted at the border for air travel — carry your passport). There is no fee, no form and no stamp limit. Children need a passport or birth certificate with a photo ID of the accompanying parent. While visa-free entry is seamless, you must carry a valid passport for the return flight check-in in Kathmandu. Full details at Visas guide.
