From Tirupati you'll feed into a metro hub, then fly to Kathmandu. IndiGo offers the widest network, with daily KTM flights from Delhi, Hyderabad and Kolkata. Air India flies Delhi–Kathmandu, and Nepal Airlines serves several Indian cities. From the Tirupati belt, Hyderabad is the closest hub with Kathmandu service, though Delhi and Kolkata offer more frequencies. Single-ticket itineraries through these hubs are the safest. The KTM approach is famously scenic — a window seat on a clear day frames the Himalayas beautifully.
Hyderabad is the nearest big hub from Tirupati (TIR–HYD is 60–75 minutes) and has IndiGo flights to Kathmandu. Kolkata is geographically closest to Nepal, giving the shortest final leg (about 1.5 hours) and frequent service. Delhi has the most KTM frequencies overall and the broadest fare spread. Pick by total price and layover: aim for a 2–3 hour buffer at the hub. On a single IndiGo ticket your bags are through-checked, which simplifies the transfer considerably over two separate bookings.
Tribhuvan International Airport is only about 6 km from central Kathmandu — one of the closest airports to a capital anywhere. The drive to Thamel takes 20–40 minutes depending on traffic. Pre-paid airport taxis cost roughly NPR 700–1,200 to Thamel; app-based rides are cheaper. The runway sits in a bowl ringed by hills, so approaches can be bumpy. From Kathmandu, Pokhara is a 25-minute flight or 6–7 hour drive, and Pashupatinath and Boudhanath are within the valley itself.
IndiGo and Air India international economy to Kathmandu usually includes 20–30 kg checked depending on the fare; Nepal Airlines is similar. The cheapest saver buckets may be hand-baggage-only, so check before booking — adding 20 kg later can cost ₹2,000–3,500. Note that Tribhuvan has weight-sensitive operations and trekkers often carry gear, so don't over-pack. Round-trip economy via Hyderabad or Kolkata commonly falls in the lower-to-mid ranges off-peak, climbing during the October trekking rush.
The prime windows are October–November and March–April, when skies are clearest for mountain views and trekking — also the busiest and priciest. For cheaper fares, target January, June and September: January is cold but crisp, while the June–August monsoon brings rain and cloud but the lowest fares. Avoid the heaviest monsoon weeks if mountain flights or treks are your goal, as visibility and short-hop flights suffer. Book 4–6 weeks ahead for the autumn peak to avoid surge pricing.
Kathmandu is a soulful mix of pilgrimage and adventure for Indian travellers. The Pashupatinath temple draws Hindu devotees, while Boudhanath and Swayambhunath add Buddhist heritage; the Durbar Squares showcase Newari architecture. Beyond the valley, Pokhara's lakes and the Annapurna foothills offer trekking and paragliding. With no visa, no language barrier (Hindi is widely understood) and easy rupee acceptance in many places, it's an effortless international break — perfect for a 4–6 day pilgrimage-plus-mountains itinerary.
Indian passport holders need no visa to enter Nepal and can stay long-term for tourism. However, you must carry valid photo identity — a passport or, where accepted, a Voter ID/Election Commission card is the recommended proof for air travel (a driving licence or Aadhaar may not suffice at the airport). Children should carry birth certificates or a passport. Indian currency notes of ₹100 and below are generally accepted; higher denominations can be restricted.
