HOW DO I GET TO BHUTAN?

The best way to enter and exit Bhutan is by Druk Air and Bhutan Airline, which links Bhutan’s only airport at Paro valley with flights to:
  • Bangkok
  • Delhi 
  • Bodhgaya
  • Guwahati
  • Singapore
  • Katmandu 
  • Dhaka
  • Calcutta
  • Mumbai
  • Bagdogra
You will have to buy international Air ticket and book hotel in any of the above gateway cities that you choose to connect to Druk Air and Bhutan Airline.
You can also enter and exit Bhutan overland from Indian cities of Sikkim, Kalimpong, Darjeeling, Siliguri or Guwahati using Bagdogra or Guwahati domestic airport in West Bengal (India). There are daily flights from Calcutta and New Delhi to Bagdogra and Guwahati airports. The car journey takes about 3 hours from Guwahati to Samdrup Jongkhar and about 4 hours from Bagdogra to Phuentsholing.
Trips:
  1. Flight operation is totally dependent on weather conditions; sometimes flights can be delayed so avoid tight connecting schedules for your ongoing flights. We suggest you to spend a day or two in Bangkok, Kathmandu or Delhi, before joining the trip in Bhutan if time permits.
  2. Connect from Bangkok (Thailand) if you are coming from North America, Australia or Asia,
  3. Connect from Delhi (India) if you are coming from Europe or the Middle East.
  4. Connect to from Kathmandu (Nepal), Calcutta (India) and Dhaka (Bangladesh), but there are only a limited number of direct flights to these places.
  5. Spend a few days exploring a different culture in any of Bhutan neighbouring countries: Thailand, Tibet, India and Nepal to enhance your trip to Bhutan.
