In keeping with the rise in air traffic, the TIA has made necessary preparation to operate domestic flights up to 18 hours per day in six airports of Terai region of Nepal from tomorrow, shared Director-General Engineer Pradeep Adhikari told. The CAAN has decided to run the airport from 6.00 am through 12 in the night in Bhadrapur, Biratnagar, Janakpur, Simara, Bhairahawa, Nepalgunj and Dhangadhi.
