Enjoy Priority Airport Access

Our Fast-Track service guides you quickly through the main commercial international terminal, utilizing diplomatic or priority lanes to bypass the general queues at check-in, visa processing, and security. The VVIP service utilizes a completely separate, restricted Government VIP Terminal building, isolating you entirely from the public and commercial passenger spaces.

Your greeter will meet you the exact moment you step off the tarmac passenger shuttle bus at the entrance of the arrival hall. Because aircraft at KTM frequently park on remote stands rather than jet bridges, this ensures you are intercepted before entering the crowded main visa and immigration queues.

While digital card machines are increasingly available at the automated kiosks, network latency is common at KTM. AssistAnt highly recommends carrying the exact fee in clean USD cash bills ($30 for 15 days, $50 for 30 days). Your greeter will take your passport and cash to the dedicated payment counter to settle it instantly on your behalf.

During peak afternoon arrival waves, standard public immigration, visa processing, and baggage collection can easily take 90 to 120 minutes. With AssistAnt's Fast-Track service, your total transit time from shuttle drop-off through immigration and customs clearance is typically reduced to under 25 minutes.

Yes. While your greeter expedites your passport through the immigration lanes, a dedicated AssistAnt luggage porter will handle your baggage tags, monitor the carousel, extract your luggage, and escort it seamlessly through the final customs X-ray screening zone.

Two primary lounges are operational for 2026: the Horizon Lounge (operated by the luxury Soaltee Hotel) located on the ground floor, and the Executive Lounge located on the second floor. Both are situated airside after passport control but before the final boarding gate security checks.

The Horizon Lounge does not have built-in showers, and its restrooms require a staff card escort just outside the lounge entrance. The second-floor Executive Lounge features a singular basic shower suite accessible at an extra cost. Neither lounge offers dedicated overnight sleeping pods, making nearby airport transit hotels preferable for long layovers.

Standard airline protocols at KTM require a 3-hour arrival buffer due to multi-layered manual security checks. With our Fast-Track service, arriving 90 to 120 minutes prior to your flight is perfectly sufficient, as we fast-track your initial terminal entry, airline check-in, and passport control.

Yes. KTM's domestic terminal sits approximately 500 meters north of the international terminal. Your AssistAnt greeter will manage your bags upon international exit, guide you to our private vehicle transfer, and cross over to the domestic hall to fast-track your domestic check-in and security screening.

Direct tarmac vehicle pickups (curbside-to-aircraft) are strictly restricted by the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal (CAAN) and are generally reserved for high-level diplomatic missions or state guests utilizing the VVIP terminal. For all commercial flights, guests must utilize the airport's designated airside passenger buses, where our greeter intercepts you immediately upon stepping off.
