Bhutan has only one international airport. Together Druk Air and Bhutan Air­lines – the two airlines operating in Bhutan – fly to Bangkok, Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Bodh Gaya, Dhaka, Kathmandu, Guwahati and Singapore.

Within Bhutan, there are domestic flights to Yonphula in eastern Bhutan, Bumthang in central Bhutan, and Gelephu in south-central Bhutan.

You can also enter Bhutan by road through Samdrup Jongkhar in south­east Bhutan, Gelephu in south-central Bhutan, and Phuentsholing in south­west Bhutan. Phuentsholing is located about 170 km east of the Indian airport of Bagdogra. Samdrup Jongkhar and Gelephu are about 100 kilometres and 130 kilometers respectively from the airport at Guwahati, the capital of the Indian state of Assam.

All major towns and important places of visit are connected by a good road network. However, the roads come with innumerable curves and bends, steep ascents and descents that slow down the car travels. The roads are well sealed but the rides can still be bumpy as the lanes are single and narrow at most points.
