    Itinerary

    During the flight, you'll be invited to the cockpit to take photos and get a closer look at the mountains. An air hostess will help you identify each peak using a brochure, and you will receive a Certificate of Completion as a keepsake for your unforgettable experience.

    07:30 AM – Drive Back to Your Hotel

    After the breathtaking flight, you will be driven back to your hotel in Kathmandu, concluding the Everest Mountain Flight experience.

      Notes: The flight from Lukla to Kathmandu is redirected to Ramechhap due to traffic congestion and a high influx of tourists during the high season. The high tourist season in Nepal is spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). In the season of tourism, there are many international and domestic flights operating in different sectors which is more than capacities of the small Tribhuban international airport. Due to this reason, there is the problem with air traffic and delays in Lukla flights too. Lukla flights are only in the morning time and it does not fly during day time due to heavy wind and foggy weather on the way to Lukla. If the flights are from Ramechaap, there is no issue of air traffic and flight duration is also less than from Kathmandu. Flight to Ramechhap will add 5 hours approx. to your journey. It seems like an added inconvenience but let’s see the brighter side
