THE EXPERIENCE

A journey worth taking.

See the Khumbu landscape from the air on a helicopter journey from Kathmandu towards the Everest region. The source programme describes Lukla, mountain villages, the Khumbu Valley and views towards the peaks around Everest.

The proposed flight

The flight programme may include a flyover and stops in the Everest region, depending on the arrangements confirmed for your booking. A landing at Everest Base Camp or Kala Patthar is not guaranteed. Aircraft capacity, weather, permissions and the operator's decisions affect the route and stops.

Before you book

Ask the team to confirm the operating company, whether you are booking a shared flight or private charter, passenger and baggage requirements, transfers, meals and the cancellation arrangements. Your written quotation will identify the services included.

Follow the operating crew's briefing and directions throughout the trip. The route, timing and visibility may change, and a flight may be delayed or cancelled. The archived itinerary provides inspiration and does not replace the operator's current flight plan or safety instructions.
