How to Prepare

  • Dress Warmly: While the cabin is heated, the high-altitude air can feel cooler.
  • Please bring a Camera: You'll want to capture the stunning vistas, so make sure your camera or phone is fully charged.
  • Arrive Early: Flights depart early in the morning, so plan to be at the airport at least an hour before takeoff.
  • Check the Weather: Weather conditions can change rapidly in the mountains. If your flight is delayed or canceled due to poor visibility, most airlines offer rebooking or refunds.

Refund Policy

While the weather conditions in the Himalayas are generally favorable in the morning, there are occasions when poor visibility or unsafe flying conditions may result in the cancellation of the Everest Mountain Flight. Airlines have flexible refund policies to ensure customer satisfaction:

  • Partial Refund: If your flight takes off but doesn't offer clear views of Mount Everest or other major peaks due to cloud cover or weather disruptions, some airlines may provide a partial refund as compensation. In most cases, we provide a full refund or reschedule 
  • No-Show Policy: If you miss the flight without prior notice or valid reasons, refunds typically will not be issued.
  • Refund Process: Refunds are processed within 7-10 business days through your original payment method, whereas rescheduling is flexible for the next day.
  • No Refund on Pickup and Drop: 10% of the total cost will be deducted as transportation cost of airport transfer.
