The Namche to Lukla helicopter flight is the quickest and most comfortable way to travel between Namche Bazar and Lukla. Namche, located at 3,440 meters, is a vibrant Sherpa town and an important stop on the Everest Base Camp trekking route. After trekking in the Khumbu region, many travelers choose the helicopter option to save time, avoid the long downhill trails, and enjoy a scenic journey back to Lukla.
The helicopter ride takes only about 10 to 15 minutes, compared to two days of trekking. During the short flight, you’ll be treated to breathtaking aerial views of snowcapped Himalayan peaks such as Everest, Ama Dablam, Thamserku, and Kusum Kanguru, along with the deep valleys and picturesque Sherpa villages below.
This service is ideal for trekkers with limited time, those who feel exhausted after their adventure, or anyone looking for a faster and more convenient option. It also serves as a reliable choice in case of altitude-related issues or emergencies where a quick descent is necessary.
Operated by professional pilots with years of experience in Himalayan flying, the Namche to Lukla helicopter flight ensures both safety and comfort. Depending on your preference, you can book a private charter for flexibility and privacy or join a group-sharing flight for a more economical option.
By choosing this flight, you not only save valuable time but also enjoy a unique and unforgettable aerial perspective of the Everest region, making your Himalayan journey even more memorable.
We decided to fly by helicopter from Namche Bazaar to Kathmandu. This avoided having to walk to Lukla and then having a long bumpy ride from Ramechhap airport back into Kathmandu. Also then we could get a flight from Kathmandu airport to Pokhara. All the arrangements were made by Easy Flight Travel. We were escorted up to the helipad and helped into the helicopter. I would definitely recommend Easy Flight Travel to anyone wanting to organise travel from Namche Bazaar
Raju from Easy Flight Travel is honest reliable and very friendly to deal with.
You can trust him to arrange a flight, recommend a hotel, or carry out safe honest mony change. What he agrees to will happen.
Highly recommended.
Raju was efficient and helpful in booking our helicopter from Namche Bazaar to Kathmandu and our flight onto Pokhara. He was there in the morning to escort us and to carry a pack up to the helicopter pad. The flight was delayed, but he waited with us and was in contact with the company, checking on when the flight would arrive.
