I have 3 options from DC to KTM (1) Etihad has a price of $1484 Long transit ( >12 hours in Abu Dhabi )-- Only one stop in Abu Dhabi But, Airline has assured a FREE ACCOMODATION in Abu Dhabi . (2) Emirates = Price $1625 Short lay over ~ 6 hour- only one stop in Dubai (3) Qatar Airways = price $1659 short lay over ~ 6 hour- only one stop in Doha Qatar. Which one do you think is good. Appreciate your feed back. Thanks.
