Where it sits
27.7°N, 85.4°E puts KTM in the northern hemisphere, 3,080 km from the equator and 6,928 km from the North pole.
Of the 661 airports on this site it is the 327th most northerly, which makes it the 335th most southerly.
Straight through the middle
Straight down through the centre of the Earth comes out at 27.7°S, 94.6°W. The nearest airport on this site to that point is Mataveri (IPC) in Chile, still 1,459 km away — most of the planet's antipodes are ocean.
What’s near it
The closest other airport on this site is Pokhara Domestic (PKR), 146 km away in a straight line. Nothing else on this site is within 100 km.

What’s on this page, and what isn’t
Every figure here is computed from the airport’s coordinates and the rest of the table — distances, bearings, ranks, the antipode. Nothing is written by hand, so nothing on it is a half-remembered fact about a terminal that was rebuilt in 2019.
Which also means what you won’t find: no passenger figures, no terminal maps, no airline lists, no live departures. Orbit is a logbook, not a flight tracker, and a page that invented those would be worse than one that leaves them out.
