Tashi Air Pvt. Ltd, trading as Bhutan Airlines, is Bhutan's first private airline.[2] Its head office is in Thimphu.[3]

The airline resumed services on 10 October 2013, beginning its first international flights to India and Thailand.[4][5] The airline served the cities of Jakar and Trashigang in Bhutan from their commencement until June 2012, suspending them due to increasing financial losses; however, following an agreement with the Bhutan government, the airline has resumed a full schedule of flights including Kolkata to Paro, Bhutan.[6]
