KATHMANDU, Nov 18: A regular flight of Nepal Airlines Corporation (NAC) in domestic route was disrupted on Friday due to technical glitches in a twin otter aircraft.

The twin otter bound for Bhojpur from Kathmandu had to be returned midway due to technical problems, according to NAC Spokesperson Archana Khadka.

There were 15 passengers onboard. It is the only plane used for domestic flights by the state-owned airline company. Due to the problem, all domestic flights of NAC were canceled until the issue gets resolved. Even the flights scheduled for Saturday have been canceled. NAC assured that the airfare paid by the passengers would be returned following the cancellation of flights.

Although the NAC has three twin otters, one is in no condition to fly while the other one has not been repaired for a long time. (RSS)
