Fly Yeti (Template:Langx, stylized as flyyeti.com)[1] was a low-cost airline based in Kathmandu, Nepal. The airline was a joint venture between the Nepalese regional carrier Yeti Airlines and Air Arabia. The airline suspended all flights from 16 July 2008, citing political uncertainty. The company slogan was Pay less, fly more.[2]
