I'm sure that question has been answered before, but.... can
anyone tell me about the feasibility of getting a plane
ticket (in KTM) from Kathmandu to Chendu (China)? Is it
impossible? Should I book my flight now (while in the US),
and not wait till I get to KTM?
I'm supposed to be going to China/Tibet to work on a Botany
project this summer, but I am unsure right now of my plans,
since tensions have been escalating in China due to the
recent Belgrade tragedy. Thus, I don't want to buy a ticket,
and have my plans fall through...with no refund. Any
suggestions? I have heard that it is extremely hard to get
from Nepal to China/Tibet... and that I may have to go about
his from a different angle.
Second question? Can anybody give me up to date info. on the
pre-election riots in Kathmandu? Unwise to be flying there
in a week and a half???
Thanks for your help!!!

Tensions are dying down. The outrage was initiated by the
central govt when they bussed students down to the US
embassy etc. All students are now back in classes.
Thre is still a lot of tension and I have heard of ctudents
harassing foreigners. A few expats in Shandung were beaten
up on their way back from a Bar last saturday.
I'd push it back 3-4 months if I were you.
