Fly direct to the gateway of Everest instead of driving five hours to Ramechhap and waiting out the fixed wing backlog.
Fly in to start your trek, fly out when it ends, or fly straight home from Gorak Shep without walking back to Lukla.
Direct from Kathmandu's domestic terminal to Tenzing-Hillary Airport. Start your trek the same morning.
Trek finished? Get back from Everest to Kathmandu the same day. Book ahead or message us from the trail.

Round trip bookings get priority seating on both legs. Private charter for the full aircraft (up to 5 passengers) available on any route.
No trekking required. Fly over the highest mountains on Earth, land in the heart of the Khumbu, and have breakfast facing Everest.

The quieter side of the Khumbu. Fly over the turquoise Gokyo Lakes beneath Cho Oyu, with the full Everest range on your window.
In peak season, most fixed wing Lukla flights relocate to Ramechhap, a 4 to 5 hour drive from Kathmandu, and weather backlogs can hold trekkers for days.
