Flight disruptions ongoing at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu, Nepal, as of July 28 due to server outage; confirm flights.
Event
Flight disruptions are ongoing at Kathmandu's Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM) as of July 28 due to a server outage since 15:30. Emerging reports indicate the outage has impacted multiple international flights, including Qatar and Vistara airways, as a result of a delay in immigration and screening services. It remained immediately unclear when flight services would normalize. Similar outages reportedly occurred on July 27 for a two-hour duration, resulting in minor delays.
Flight disruptions are likely to occur intermittently over the coming days. Lingering delays will probably continue after flights resume as airlines work to clear potential backlogs.
Advice
Plan for flight disruptions at KTM. Reconfirm the status of flights before departure.
