SIMKOT

Simkot airport of Humla has witnessed an increasing flow of passengers to their destinations. The daily flow of passengers to the airport has gradually increased with the students reaching their houses from Kathmandu, Surkhet, Nepalgunj, and Pokhara due to an outbreak of the virus and have started returning to their destinations following the relaxation of lockdown. 

As the education and examination are taking place through an online medium after a hiatus of lockdown and the internet is not working well in Humla, the students are bound to go outside the district. 

According to Simkot airport, the number of people going outside the district is increasing day by day. Every day over 50 passengers are going outside the district through the air. 

The ongoing up-gradation of the airport has troubled private airplanes to operate their flights in a full-fledge and smooth manner. Passengers are also facing problems in accessing air tickets due to limited flights. There seems to queue up of passengers leaving for their destinations at the gate of the Simkot airport.
