Why doesn't he use less than 1 percent of the money he amassed from late king birendra to buy his own plane and stop interfering with public means of transport? RNAC flights face cancellation KRISHNA REGM KATHMANDU, Nov 10 - Royal Nepal Airlines Corporation (RNAC) is to see a cancellation of around 30 percent of its international flights and a delay of around 20 percent of flights for three weeks, as one of its two Boeings will be used for the king's upcoming foreign trips. The Boeing-757-9N ACB is chartered for King Gyanendra's trip to Dhaka to attend the 13th SAARC summit. Likewise, it is chartered to fly to African countries including Tunisia, Burundi, Nigeria and Egypt for the king's visits for 20 days, starting from December 13. "We do not have an option, but to cut the international flights by 30 percent and see a delay in 20 percent more flights after one of the aircraft has been chartered. But, we have cancelled flights on destinations where the corporation has much less bookings," said an official at the RNAC.
