Paro Airport is located at an altitude of 2,300 mtrs and the flight into this valley is breathtaking. On a clear day you can view the Great Himalayan range including Mt. Everest in neighbouring Nepal.  The government owned Druk - Air (Royal Bhutan Airlines) is the only airline to operate in and out of the kingdom.  The Airline operates with two BAE (British Aerospace) twin engine jets that can accomodate only eighty passengers at a time.
