About:China Flight

I booked a flight from Kathmandu to Chengdu and a connection flight to Shanghai with air china. Now Air China told me, that I need a Permit or a special kind of a transfer/transit visa or something like that, because the plane has stop of 1 hour in lhasa. They said, that I wouldn't be allowed to enter the plane in Katmandu if I don't have it. I don't understand why, because I won't leave the airport and I didn't know about it when I booked the flight. I think I will just have to change planes. Does anybody know something about it? Do I really need a permit? If I need it, where can I get it?
Thanks for your answers.

Yeah, you need the Tibet Entry Permit, which is issued by Tibet Tourism Bureau and is a must for foreigners entering Tibet. Tibet Entry Permit is not available by independent travelers at the moment. And you have to travel in tour group and ask their travel agent to apply it for you. If you do not want to process it, you can change your flight with your airlines before departure.
