Overview

One of the finest alternatives to using conventional planes to get from Kathmandu to Lukla is by Kathmandu-Lukla helicopter tour. Throughout the helicopter tour, it is more comfortable and offers the best vistas of the surrounding mountains and landscape. Kathmandu-Lukla helicopter tour is the best option if you must travel quickly and adhere to a schedule in order to get to Lukla.

A thrilling Kathmandu-Lukla helicopter tour takes you to Nepal's Mount Everest region. Lukla is 136.17 kilometers from Kathmandu, yet the helicopter tour covers the distance in about 45 minutes (with landing time). With the customer's safety and comfort in mind, Blue Mountain Travels & Tours Pvt Ltd offers both individual and group sharing flights from Kathmandu to Lukla or return.

Given that Lukla Airport is 2800 meters above sea level, Lukla occasionally has poor weather throughout the year. Additionally, because Lukla Airport is located in the Himalayas, there is no guarantee of a strong wind in the area. Before landing, the path to Lukla Airport is flanked by large mountains and hills. We constantly have a high likelihood of a strong wind blowing and unpredictable weather changes because of the mountain hills and their altitude. As a result, it frequently causes regular airline flights to be canceled. All travelers who want to travel to Lukla or return to Kathmandu from the airport at Lukla will find the helicopter tour to be the best option in the event of a regular flight cancellation. In poor visibility, the helicopter may still fly only a narrow window allows for a helicopter jour. Normal aircraft, however, require clear skies in order to fly. Even in ideal flying conditions, landing at Lukla Airport is a scary experience.
