For anyone else considering GMG....

I called reservations 48 hours before my DAC-KTM to reconfirm. "Yes, yes, we have your reservation confirmed." Show up at airport 2 hours before flight: "We no longer fly that route." "As of when?" "About 5 weeks ago."

Was offered Biman, which I briefly considered (ignoring safety concerns) but when I found out the standby list was over 50 people....I reluctantly gave up on going to KTM

Finding an affordable last-minute ticket out of DAC was far more interesting. Of course, GMG is refusing to refund the tickets....
