Summit Air, formerly known as Goma Air, is an airline based in Kathmandu, Nepal. The airline operates from short takeoff and landing airstrips in the Western parts of Nepal. [2] [3] The airline received the first of two Let 410 aircraft, financed by the Czech Republic Export Bank., [4] in October 2014, and initially only used them on flights to Lukla and Jomsom. [5]
The airline was founded as Goma Air in February 2011. It began to operate using Cessna Grand Caravan 208 B aircraft. In October 2014, the airline acquired one Let 410 UVP-E20 aircraft, which was the first aircraft of this type to be operated in Nepal. [6] The airline is the only one to use Nepalgunj Airport as the main hub of operation and focuses on operating out of that base. [7] On 13 March 2017, the airline officially changed its name to Summit Air. [8]
In 2014, Summit Air signed a deal with Fishtail Air with the aim of enhancing Nepal's tourism. Both Airlines are led by Bikash JB Rana, for which a collaboration was eased. [9] [10] Following Goma Air's name change to Summit Air, in 2018, Fishtail Air also changed its name to Summit Helicopters to visualize the cooperation, [11] [12] however has since reverted its name.
