Tibet Flights Information

You can fly to Lhasa and also Nyingchi but flying in from a much lower altitude city puts you at high risk of altitude sickness because of the quick transition. If you are in Sichuan or nearby (and aren't satisfied visiting the many ethnically Tibetan areas to the east of the Tibetan Autonomous Region) flying from Chengdu is the easiest option.
A flight from Chengdu to Lhasa plus all the necessary paperwork will cost around 1550 yuan, and can be arranged through most large hostels or travel agents.

The Lhasa Gonggar Airport (IATA: LXA) is about 50 km from Lhasa. It takes 1 hours to the center of Lhasa. There are flights from Beijing, Chengdu, Chongqing, Guangzhou, Kunming, Qamdo, Shanghai, Xi'an, Xining, and Zhongdian (Shangri-La).
International flights are available to Kathmandu, Nepal and Hong Kong.

There are a lot of flights in and out of Lhasa. Here below is the timetable but as for the accurate flights or price at some specific time, please email to recheck with us.
