Kathmandu: Come September 2004, Nepal’s Tribhuwan International Airport, TIA, is all set to greet the landing of the Sahara Air, India.

Joy Dewan, the GSA for Sahara Air for Nepal, beamingly says that the airlines will land in Kathmandu practically every day.

The airline has a capacity of 168 and is a wide-bodied jet-Boeing 737-800.

Dewan hopes that with the landing of Sahara Air in Kathmandu on a daily basis will come as a blessing to the sagging travel and trade business and to the declining economy of the country.

“It would boost the hotel occupancy rates and also contribute to the national exchequer in a variety of ways”, adds Joy Dewan who is concurrently the GSA for Qatar Airways as well.
