Gold Coast to Kathmandu Flights | Cheap Airfares & Fast Booking
Distance: ~9,580 km. This route is the "budget capital," often using Scoot (via SIN) or AirAsia (via KUL).
BNE vs. OOL
Always compare prices with Brisbane (BNE). Sometimes the $200 saving from OOL is lost in extra baggage fees or the "Scoot-Thru" service cost.
Scoot-Thru Service
If flying Scoot via Singapore, pay for the "Scoot-Thru" service. It allows you to skip Singapore immigration and have your bags transferred automatically.
Light Packing
Budget airlines at OOL are very strict on the 7kg carry-on limit. Weigh your bag before you leave home.
Train to BNE
If OOL flights are expensive, the Airtrain from the Gold Coast to Brisbane International is a reliable alternative.
The "Hidden" Hub
Some OOL flights connect via Sydney or Cairns before heading to Asia. Check your "Stops" carefully.
Hydration
Budget flights don't provide free water. Buy a large bottle after security at OOL to take on the 8-hour flight to Asia.
Visa Cash
Gold Coast currency exchanges rarely stock Nepalese Rupees. Stick to buying USD for your visa.
