Itinerary Informations

The provided itinerary is standard, and if you want to customize it, you can do it. OR you can also go through our Plan Your Holidays page.

Lukla flight from Manthali Airport, Ramechhap:

Due to the air traffic in Kathmandu during the peak months (March, April, May, September, October, and November), CAAN has promulgated the notice that the flight has been shifted to Manthali from Kathmandu to Lukla. If there are changes will update you ASAP.

Lukla Flights:

All we know is that the Lukla flight is sensitive in the case of weather. Instantly it may be delayed and canceled as well. A tiny Himalayan airport has difficulty facing heavy traffic which is why sometimes the flight may be delayed. So, we suggest, trekking in Everest, please make sure at least you have two days additional in the program. In the case of a weather cancellation, the best alternative to get Lukla is to charter a helicopter because the copter can fly in lower visibility of 1,500 meters. However, Twin Otter and Dornier aircraft need minimum visibility of 5,000 meters.

What about the Helicopter cost? Is it getting instant or need to be in the queue?

A helicopter charges US $ 2500 per flight to Lukla from Kathmandu. And the US $ 500 per person on a sharing basis. Except for the emergency, during the high season and extreme weather of Lukla, you may not get a helicopter instantly or need to be in the queue. Also, if you have requested the Helicopter for less than 24hrs, you may need to wait because of the limited number of helicopters, and they’re using various activities in the mountains.

Important Info

Lukla Flights:

Lukla flights are highly sensitive to weather, often leading to delays or cancellations. The small Himalayan airport faces heavy traffic, causing additional delays. We recommend adding at least two extra days to your Everest trekking schedule. In case of weather cancellations, consider chartering a helicopter, which can operate in lower visibility (1,500 meters) compared to Twin Otter and Dornier aircraft (5,000 meters).

Helicopter Costs: $2,500 per flight from Kathmandu to Lukla or $500 per person on a shared flight. During high season or extreme weather, helicopters may not be instantly available and might require waiting in a queue. Booking less than 24 hours in advance may also cause delays due to limited availability.
