unique: Lhasa is the capital of Tibet. Let me say - NO CHANCE ..
If I remember, the runway is located at high altitude, that not all airlines are allowed to fly there .. in the first place.
And crew are known to get down with altitude sickness .. and flights need clearence, so do the passengers, as Visa to China doesn't include permit to Lhasa ..
Plus, there was some supplementary certification for high altitude landings, considering the thin air

Crew apart I don't think the aircraft itself needs to be certified for high altitude operations right? I don't remember reading anything special about the A319 delivered to the new start up Tibet airways.
