COSMIC AIR FLIGHT SCHEDULE
Introduction
Cosmic Air started as a domestic airline based in Kathmandu, Nepal, with its operations from 1997 with two MI 17 Helicopters. The aircraft fleet was upgraded in 1998-99 with a Dornier 228 aircraft and further in 2000-01 with two SAAB 340 aircraft. It was then quite a feat as Cosmic Air was the first airline to introduce second-generation turbo prop aircraft with pressurized cabin within the domestic flights. And in October 2004 the first Fokker 100 Jet Aircraft was added to the fleet.
Cosmic Air has revolutionized the domestic operations by introducing jet aircraft since November 2004 on its trunk routes, which were previously operated by turbo prop aircraft for the last 35 years.
Cosmic Air then expanded in a phenomenal fashion by operating regional flights to India and Bangladesh with its twice-daily flights to Delhi and five weekly flights to Dhaka.
Cosmic Air is a subsidiary of SOI Group, a conglomerate of 14 companies with interests in Tourism, Aviation, Banking, Telecommunications, General Trading, Manufacturing, and Hydropower among others. The Group is among the leading business houses of Nepal and is one of the largest taxpayers in the country. With an annual turnover of over USD 300 million, SOI is one of the largest organizations in terms of employment generation in Nepal.
Cosmic Air is the largest airline in Nepal in terms of fleet, seat capacity and traffic carriage. Its fleet consists of 4 Fokker 100 jet aircraft, 2 Dorniers (2 more are under a maintenance programme) and 1 SAAB 340.
