en.Wedoany.com Reported - At around 4:00 a.m. on the 5th, a Himalaya Airlines international flight arrived at Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport from Kathmandu, Nepal, and returned to Nepal two hours later. Nearly 260 passengers smoothly entered and exited, marking the successful launch of the Shenzhen-Kathmandu round-trip route.

"Currently, Shenzhen Airport has reached 63 international and regional passenger destinations, and the number of inbound and outbound passenger flights this year has exceeded 17,000," said Zhu Tingting, Deputy Captain of the Second Duty Team at the Shenzhen Airport Border Inspection Station. "The newly opened Nepal route will further boost Shenzhen's international tourism market. With the summer vacation approaching, there will be a significant increase in passenger traffic."

It is understood that this route is the second new international passenger route opened by Shenzhen Airport this year, and also the second South Asian route after the Maldives route. It will further promote connectivity between the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and Nepal, facilitating travel for passengers to South Asian countries or transit through Nepal to Middle Eastern countries.

"I plan to go to Hebei and Guangdong to see China's history and culture, and also (taste) some Chinese cuisine. This direct flight is very convenient, and I absolutely love it," said Nepalese traveler NAIDA WANI, who is visiting China for the first time.

"This direct flight is very popular, and the number of inquiries for our Nepal travel business has grown significantly. The inaugural flight alone had four groups with over 100 people, and there are several more tour groups to follow," said He Jiaojiao, a tour guide from Tian Tian Jia Qi International Travel Agency.

It is reported that the Shenzhen Airport Border Inspection Station has further optimized on-site duty organization, implemented personnel zoning inspections, and upgraded the online foreigner entry card reporting system with multilingual auxiliary prompts to improve clearance efficiency.
