At the Tribhuvan International Airport, the service provided by taxis with green number plates, which are operated only to serve tourists, has been operated through the app since Thursday.
'Airport Passenger Transport Services Limited', which was registered as a public limited company from partners including transport workers, launched the 'Nepal Airport Taxi' app on Thursday.
State Minister for Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation Arun Chaudhary released the app during a program held at Gaushala. With the change in information technology, the app will help foreign tourists to have a positive opinion about Nepal, said Vijay Bahadur Swaran, president of the Federation of Nepal Transport Businessmen. Swaran, who is also the founding chairman of Airport Air Passenger Transport Services Limited, said that the app has ended the need to stand in line for taxis. In the first phase, this app has been implemented on the Android mobile operating system developed by Google. According to SP Singh, owner of app developer company Tummok, this app will be released in Apple's iOS operating system in a few days.
There are 208 taxis with green number plates at Kathmandu Airport. They are providing one-way transportation services for tourists only. Now, with the help of the app, ordinary passengers will be able to enter the airport by boarding this taxi. Purushottam Singhada, Chairman of Limited, said that in the app, you can see detailed information about the speed and location of the taxi.
