We booked and paid for our Buddha Air flight from Kathmandu to Pokhara three months in
advance. The confirmed flight time (12:30 PM) didn't match the internet flight time. The
tickets delivered to our Kathmandu hotel had us on a different flight, with a departure time
of 2:30 PM. We called Buddha Air for two days with no answer. Our hotel finally reached
them, and changed our flight to 9:40 AM, since our 12:30 flight had sold out---in other words,
they'd sold our original seats to someone else. We tried for 3 more days to reach Buddha by
phone, and finally dropped by one of their offices. They had our names on a confirmation
list for the 9:40 AM flight, #605. When we checked in at the airport, we noticed we were now
on a completely different flight, #601, which departed at 10:00 AM. It was a prop-plane, and
held maybe 20 people, with only one seat on each side of the aisle. There was no confirmed
seating. (A tip: for great mountain views on the way to Pokhara, sit on the right side of the
plane, and from Pokhara to Kathmandu, on the left.) It was a relatively smooth flight for
what many term a "vomit comet". Buddha Air's slogan should be "We'll get you where you're
going, but until then, you'll be confused."
