Tara Air conducted only one flight per day in the winter season and most of the flights were cancelled due to low visibility, high wind factor and disturbance in reroute. Due to the geographical structure and unfavorable weather phenomena, Jomsom airport is frequently hit by disturbance in flight operation.
Tara Air has been flying a regular flight from Pokhara to Jomsom. The Airline has been providing air service in the remote and mountainous region of the country; and has been truly a friend of the general people living in the hilly areas of the country where road access is difficult.
