Is it possible that they are flying in empty planes in order to fly people out? Is there any way of checking?
TIA
Yes some airlines are still flying. The inbound plane si empty (except for some Nepali), but the flights ex-KTM are quite full. But be ready for a steep price, as can be expected. And try to get your son back ASAP as that might not last long. Today QR653 did fly.
