We flew to Chitwan. Cost wise, compared to a car & driver, there was little difference in price. When we were there the road was closed daily for construction and thus subject to long delays, other travelers told us the road was horrendous. The flight to Chitwan left pretty much on time, the flight back to Kathmandu was delayed by 3 hrs due to weather. The flight is less than one hour, you an use either Buddah or Yeti airlines to Bharatapur,; private planes can land on the grass runway a few miles from Chitwan. I admit the flight leaving Chitwan was scary due to the storm. The time savings, even with the delay, were huge. For us, we wanted to spend our time in Chitwan, so flying was the way to go.
