A direct flight from Pokhara to Janakpur has started today. Buddha Air has started flying three days a week. The Pokhara-Janakpur flight will be operated every Saturday, Monday and Wednesday, said Gautam Baral, Pokhara-based station manager.

In the first phase, Buddha plans to operate daily three days a week and if the number of passengers increases, he said, "Currently, we have started flying from an 18-seat capacity ship."

A team including Gandaki Chief Minister Krishnachandra Nepali Pokhrel has left for Janakpur today on the first flight. The maximum fare for a 50-minute Pokhara-Janakpur flight is Rs 9,360 per passenger and the lowest is Rs 4,100. It is believed that the flight will help in the promotion of natural and cultural tourism between the two cities.

Buddha Air had started flying from Pokhara to Dhangadhi in the far west a few days ago. Similarly, Buddha Air, which is flying from Kathmandu to Bharatpur, Bhairahawa, Nepalgunj and Simara, is also planning to fly from Pokhara to Biratnagar and Bhadrapur in the near future.

Participating in the first flight, Gandaki Chief Minister Pokharel expressed confidence that the inter-state air network would help in the promotion of tourism. A team including the Chief Minister has left for Janakpur for a three-day visit at the invitation of Madhesh Chief Minister Lal Babu Raut. A team led by Madhes Chief Minister Raut had visited Pokhara on September 22 at the invitation of Gandaki Chief Minister Pokharel.
