KATHMANDU, April 10: With the arrival of the summer-autumn flight season in 2025, China Southern Airlines has optimized its flight layout starting from April 10, further enhancing the capacity of the Nepal-China route and promoting economic, cultural, and tourism cooperation between the two countries, the Airlines announced through a press release today.
According to the latest flight schedule, China Southern will resume daily night flights from Kathmandu to Guangzhou during April through October. At the same time, the daytime flight schedule will be adjusted, with the overall departure time pushed back by 50 minutes, resulting in the planned departure time from Kathmandu being adjusted to 12:50. This is expected to enhance flight connections, allowing passengers to arrange their schedules more comfortably, it is stated.
It is worth noting that the operating frequency of China Southern's daytime flights has also been adjusted at different times.

From April 10 to May, daytime flights will operate four times a week - on Sunday, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. From June to August, daytime flights will be reduced to two times a week - on Sunday and Thursday. From September to October, daytime flights will resume daily.
The number of seats planned by China Southern Airlines for this season has significantly increased. Approximately 45,000 seats will be offered from Kathmandu to Guangzhou, and over 46,000 seats from Guangzhou to Kathmandu, according to the Airlines.
It stated that compared to the same period last year, this represents an increase of more than 6,000 seats, a growth of 16.5 percent on the Kathmandu-to-Guangzhou route, and over 13,000 seats, a growth of 39.9 percent on the Guangzhou-to-Kathmandu route. This adjustment not only provides passengers with more travel options but also further facilitates economic, trade, and cultural exchanges between China and Nepal.
The increase in transport capacity coincides with the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Nepal and the "China-Nepal Tourism Year."
