Why PM Kp Oli fly to China with Himalaya?

Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli is likely traveled on a specially-reserved Himalaya Airlines jet to China on Sunday. Leading a team of around 58 members, PM Oli is visiting China at the invitation of his Chinese counterpart Li Keqiang. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has asked the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal (Caan) to make necessary arrangements at Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA) for the VVIP flight. Himalaya is the third Nepali carrier in service to serve the international sector after Nepal Airlines and Buddha Air. The 158-seater aircraft, dry leased from a Chinese company in Chengdu, landed at Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA) on Wednesday afternoon. The start-up private carrier plans to lease another A319 jet by June. The airline is scheduled to conduct its maiden commercial flight on the Kathmandu-Delhi sector. Himalaya will be the sixth airline to operate on the sector after Nepal Airlines, Jet Airways, Air India, Druk Air and IndiGo.
