December 20: The arrival of visitors to Nepal reduced significantly in the first nine months of 2020 due to Covid-19 pandemic.
According to the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal (CAAN), a total of 927,208 visitors arrived in Nepal between January to September 2020. The number of visitors in the corresponding period of last fiscal year was 4.13 million. Similarly, 4.34 million travellers had entered Nepal in 2018. The figure for 2017 was 3.88 million.
According to CAAN Spokesperson Raj Kumar Chhetri, the figures were based on arrival of passengers through air route.
CAAN informed that a total of 787,040 passengers traveled through domestic airports during the review period. The number of domestic travellers in 2019 was 3.18 million while that in 2018 was 2.84 million and 2.45 million in 2017.
A total of 30 international airline companies, including three of Nepal, operate flights to 32 destinations of 15 different countries.
In the domestic sector, a total of nine-fixed winged aircraft and 10 helicopters operate in Nepal.
The Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation says that the government had set a target of welcoming 2 million tourists in Nepal in 2020 but that did not materialize die to the pandemic.
Tourism Minister Yogesh Bhattarai says that although the government’s decision to celebrate 2020 as visit Nepal year 2020 could not materialize, its focus now is to observe 2021 as a year for domestic tourism.
Although the government has not made any formal announcement yet, it is widely believed that it will be promoting domestic tourism in 2021. The ministry has also started discussing the topic of 2-day holiday during weekends for promoting internal tourism.
The lockdown imposed by the government on March 24 to curb the spread if coronavirus had disrupted international flights since a long time. The suspension of domestic flights also caused a considerable loss in terms of flow of tourists. Although the ban on international flights were lifted on September 1st the arrival of visitors has not been that much encouraging due to fear of contracting the disease.
