The price we quote is the price you pay
We don't add fees at the last step. If a cheaper fare has a catch, such as a tight layover or a strict change rule, we tell you before you book.

Who we are
We make the same trip our customers do.
Most of us came to Australia as students or on work visas, and we still fly home for Dashain and for family. So we know what a Kathmandu fare should cost in October, which transit stops leave you stuck for nine hours, and why a 30 kg bag matters when half of it is gifts.
SkyTrips is a booking service run by people who have made the trip, and the founder still answers the phone. He explains why he started it in the video.
Our story
From one laptop to a team.
SkyTrips has never advertised. It grew because customers recommended it to the people around them.
2009
Nine years behind a travel agency desk
Anu came to Sydney as a student and took a job at a travel agency. Most of the people who sat across his desk were Nepali, and he kept seeing them pay more than they should have for the trip home.
2018
SkyTrips starts
Anu ran it on his own from a laptop in the evenings after work. There was no advertising. One customer told a cousin, the cousin told a colleague, and the phone kept ringing.
2022
Krishna joins
Anu called his childhood friend Krishna, who had spent more than ten years working in technology. For the first time SkyTrips had more than one person behind it.
2024
The website goes live
You could now search and book online at any hour, but the same people still check every booking and answer the phone.
Today
Built around the trips our customers make
Festival fares, extra baggage, parents visiting Australia, flights home at short notice. Those are the problems we spend our time on.
How we work
How we work.
Support in Nepali
You can reach us on WhatsApp, Viber or phone from 8am to 9pm AEST, and the person who answers speaks Nepali.
We know the routes to Kathmandu
From Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane or Perth, usually via Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Doha or Guangzhou. We know which connections work and which ones to avoid.
We work around your dates
Visa delays, a family emergency, leave approved at the last minute. If your dates move, tell us and we'll find a fare that fits.
We handle the airline when flights change
If a flight is cancelled or delayed, we call the airline so you don't have to, and we tell you what your options are.
Built for the Nepali community in Australia
That is who we started with and who we still serve. It shapes the fares we look for and the way we handle every call.
Leadership
The people behind SkyTrips.
The person who quotes your fare is usually the same person who picks up when something changes.
