Hobart to Kathmandu Flights | Cheap Airfares & Fast Booking
Distance: ~10,100 km. This is the longest and most logistically complex route, always requiring a transfer in MEL or SYD.
The "Through-Check" Essential
Ensure your ticket is booked as one single itinerary (e.g., Hobart to Kathmandu). This ensures that if your HBA-MEL flight is delayed by Bass Strait weather, the airline is liable to get you to Nepal.
Temperature Shock
You will be transitioning from Hobart’s damp cold to Kathmandu’s dry, dusty heat. Dress in light wool layers (Merino) that work for both.
MEL Transfer Walk
If transferring in Melbourne, you usually have to walk from T3 (Domestic) to T2 (International). It’s a 5–10 minute walk; factor this into your connection time.
Morning Flight Priority
Always take the earliest possible flight out of Hobart to ensure you don't miss the major international evening departures from MEL/SYD.
Power Bank Rules
Ensure your power banks are in your carry-on before leaving HBA; security in HBA is just as strict as international security.
Hiking Poles
If you are a Tasmanian trekker, your poles must be in your checked luggage from the very first leg at HBA.
Duty-Free
Buy your spirits in MEL or SIN, as Hobart’s international duty-free selection is non-existent.
