FAQs - booking Tibet flights

  • How far is Lhasa Airport from the city centre?

    Lhasa Airport is about 30 mi from the city centre by road, via the shortest route. The journey takes approximately 1h 20min by car and around 1h by private shuttle bus. A one-way bus ticket for one person costs around ¥30 (approx. £3.50).

  • Can I book a flight to Tibet via Nepal instead?

    You can fly to Tibet via Nepal instead, usually departing from London Gatwick Airport (LGW) and flying on multiple airlines. However, do consider that only China-based airlines operate flights to Tibet from Kathmandu Airport (KTM) in Nepal and that the travel documents required to enter Tibet from Nepal will be different. Passengers travelling to Tibet via Nepal need a special Tibet Group Visa and your group needs to include at least five people.

  • What are the top attractions in Tibet near the airport?

    Both the Potala Palace and Jokhang Temple are about 37 mi from the airport, or 1h 10min by road. You can reach both attractions by taxi or shuttle bus. A taxi ride can cost around ¥160-200 (approx. £19-23), while a one-way bus ticket will cost around ¥25 (approx. £3).

  • I’ve booked a flight to Tibet from Heathrow. Can I reach the airport by public transport?

    Yes, underground, train and buses all serve London Heathrow Airport. The most affordable option is to take the underground Piccadilly Line, but this can take up to 1h to reach the airport. The train is the quickest option, with the Heathrow Express departing from Paddington Station and taking about 15min to reach the airport. There are several buses serving Heathrow airport, but these options are dependent on traffic and might not be the most reliable alternatives for getting to the airport on time.

  • How does KAYAK find such low prices on flights from the United Kingdom to Tibet?

    KAYAK is a travel search engine. That means we look across the web to find the best prices we can find for our users. With over 2 billion flight queries processed yearly, we are able to display a variety of prices and options on flights from the United Kingdom to Tibet.

  • How does KAYAK's flight Price Forecast tool help me choose the right time to buy my flight ticket from the United Kingdom to Tibet?

    KAYAK’s flight Price Forecast tool uses historical data to determine whether the price for a flight from the United Kingdom to Tibet is likely to change within 7 days, so travellers know whether to wait or book now.

  • What is the Hacker Fare option on flights from the United Kingdom to Tibet?

    Hacker Fares allow you to combine one-way tickets in order to save you money over a traditional return ticket. You could then fly from the United Kingdom to Tibet with an airline and back with another airline.

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight from the United Kingdom to Tibet?

    Sometimes travel dates aren't set in stone. If your preferred travel dates have some wiggle room, flexible dates will show you all the options when flying from the United Kingdom to Tibet up to 3 days before/after your preferred dates. You can then pick the flights that suit you best.

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Tibet

  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Tibet flight deals.
  • Although Tibet is served by five airports, all international flights land at Lhasa Gonggar Airport (LXA) in the capital city. This airport is only served by flights to Tibet from China. Travellers from the United Kingdom will therefore have at least one stopover in either Beijing or Chengdu before reaching their final destination.
  • Passengers from England can book a flight to Tibet on Air China from London Heathrow (LHR) with a stopover in Beijing or Chengdu. Travellers from elsewhere in the UK have the option of booking separate flights – one to Heathrow and one for the rest of the route to Tibet – or having their first stopover in another city in Europe. Please note that this last option will most likely mean separate tickets with multiple airlines.
  • UK passengers need a tourist visa to enter China first before continuing their trip to Tibet. This is also one of the documents required to apply for a Tibet Tourism Board permit to enter your final destination.
  • If you’re planning a trip to Tibet to visit Everest Base Camp around spring, make sure you search for flights to Tibet as far in advance as possible to avoid a dramatic increase in prices.
  • Losar, or Tibetan New Year, takes place for two weeks in February or March. However, if you plan to visit Tibet for this event, check if the government is still issuing visas at this time of year before booking your flight to Tibet.

Very friendly and attentive flight attendants, good food service. Seat was comfortable. However, the in flight electronics were poor. The screen froze repeatedly; the controller died; the headphones are a hit or miss; the wifi wasn't usable. Very scarce communication before the flight (no email reminder). Almost impossible to understand in-flight communications (audio was very poor).

Almost impossible to understand in-flight communications (audio was very poor).

The meals were not the greatest and lacking of appetite but everything else was spot on

Overall, excellent: check-in, boarding, service, and food. The Business Class seating is a little less private and spacious than the world's premier airlines, but still very good for a long haul flight.

On time. Friendly and helpful flight attendants. The plane was clean. Having a wine available would have been nice.

Your staff was exceptional. Could teach the other airlines-rules on etiquette, and service. Excellent landings on flights, carried out by your pilots. Only complaint is long delay on return flight in Beijing, onto Vancouver.

Worst than I expected, crew was not attentive, meal was as disgusting , they didn’t even drink selections as they would to other passengers. I felt discriminated

cannot get seat information for LAX to IAH when check in in XI,AN

UA is ok. But check in was a very bad experience

I hate that you cannot check in online and when you are at the airport, there aren't any aisle seats left. Also, they could work a little on subtitles for their movies (not everyone is a native English speaker).

Nothing to complain of, the only reason I am not giving better marks is that I am used to flying with ANA and they are the top.
