Flydubai to Commence Direct Pokhara-Dubai Flights from September 23

Pokhara. Flydubai will commence direct flight services from Pokhara to Dubai from September 23. Direct flights to Dubai, a global air transit hub, will connect Pokhara to the international air network. Despite being operational for three years, regular international flights have not been possible from Pokhara International Airport.

Although Himalaya Airlines first started regular commercial flights from Pokhara to Lhasa in March 2025, the service is currently suspended due to low passenger numbers. The Pokhara-Dubai flight is the second commercial flight to be operated from Pokhara International Airport. Prior to this, charter flights have been operating to various destinations in China, India, and Bhutan.
