-- NEPAL: Kathmandu ( KTM)

-- BANGLADESH :  Dhaka ( DAC)

-- THAILAND :  Bangkok  (BKK)

Druk Air is the only airline operating in Bhutan.  As Druk Air flights may be delayed because of weather in the monsoon (July & August), it is advisable to keep a 24-hour gap before any onward international connections.

** By Overland :
If you wish to enter Bhutan by overland then there is 1 entry point  and 2 exit points:

Phuntsholing  : Both Entry And Exit Point  

You can enter/exit Bhutan overland from the Indian state of West Bengal into Phuntsholing, border town in southwest of Bhutan.  Four hours drive from Phuntsholing will take you to Bagdogra in the state of West Bengal (India) which is the nearest airport from Phuntsholing. Phuntsholing serves as a convenient point for the travellers wishing to visit the Indian states of Sikkim, West Bengal along with Bhutan. The drive from Phuntsholing to Thimphu takes six hours.

Samdrup Jongkhar : Exit Point Only   

Samdrup Jongkhar is in southeast, 110 km from Guwahati, India, which is nearest to the Guwahati Airport.  From Guwahati, you may fly into other Indian cities like Delhi, Mumbai or Kolkata and to your onward flight connections.
