New Delhi, April 25 (IANS): Budget carrier Spice Jet on Saturday said it will not only offer full refund to passengers booked on their flights to Kathmandu, but also allow them an option for re-scheduling as and when operations resume to the Nepalese capital.

"All passengers on our flights to and from Kathmandu can get a full refund," an official at the airline's customer care department told IANS. "We are also extending a fortnight's window to our booked passengers to re-schedule their flights at no extra charges," the official added.

The window is open till May 8. The airline was to operate one flight to Kathmandu, leaving New Delhi at 5:50 p.m. and the same aircraft was to return at 10:05 p.m.

The Tribhuvan International Airport was shut on Saturday after a massive earthquake rocked Nepal just before noon, resulting in the cancellation of all the eight subsequent return flights from India bound for the capital city.
