Nothing compares to the awe-inspiring beauty of the Himalayas. With the Everest Experience flight, you get an unparalleled, intimate encounter with Mt.

This is particularly beneficial for travelers who want to experience the beauty of the mountains but may not have the physical ability or time to undertake a long trek. Even seasoned trekkers find it hard to resist the opportunity to witness the grandeur of these mountains in one swift flight.

Departing from Kathmandu early in the morning, the one-hour journey unveils a stunning array of mountain scenery almost immediately as the aircraft heads east.

Passengers are treated to an uninterrupted view of the Himalayan range, including some of the most famous peaks such as Lhotse, Makalu, and of course, Everest. The clarity and beauty of the morning light on the snow-capped peaks make for an unforgettable experience.
Worried about monsoon clouds? There’s no need. Our flights to the Himalayas operate at 25,000 feet, soaring above the typical monsoon cloud cover of 20,000 feet. This ensures that the magnificent Himalayan views remain unobstructed, even during the monsoon season. Our aircraft are designed to handle the altitude and weather conditions, providing a safe and comfortable journey for all passengers. This feature sets our flights apart, offering reliability and peace of mind for travelers concerned about weather disruptions.
Our fleet includes Bombardier Dash Q400, SAAB-340, and Dornier-228, all equipped with the latest avionics and instruments found in modern jetliners. These aircraft are specifically chosen for their reliability, safety, and ability to operate at high altitudes. The Bombardier Dash Q400, for example, is known for its excellent performance and comfort, making it a popular choice for regional flights. The SAAB-340 and Dornier-228 are also well-regarded for their performance in challenging conditions, ensuring that passengers have a smooth and enjoyable flight experience.
We operate mountain flights every day, all year round. This means that no matter when you visit Nepal, you have the opportunity to experience the Everest Experience flight. However, due to high demand, especially during peak seasons, we recommend checking availability and booking as soon as possible. The peak seasons, particularly spring and autumn, see a surge in tourists looking to experience the beauty of the Himalayas, so early booking is essential to secure your spot.
In addition to the breathtaking views, the Everest Experience flight offers passengers a unique perspective on the geography and culture of the region. As you soar above the mountains, you can see the rugged terrain that has shaped the lives of the people who live there. The flight also provides an excellent opportunity for photography, with clear views of the peaks and valleys below.

Trip Reviews
Recently I visited Nepal and had great holiday with Trekking Team Group. The company is run by Shree and his brother who are proud of his homeland and are so welcoming to foreign visitors. My first “encounter” occurred shortly after my arrival in Kathmandu when I was looking for a operator to organize Everest Experience flight. I was keen to book a flight to see the mountains as soon as possible as I have heard many good things about this flight. Shree immediately organized this flight for me on the day when I wished to go, picked me up from my hotel at 6.00am on the morning of the flight and was there at the airport to meet me afterwards. The flight with Yeti Airlines was a magical experience. Everyone has a window seat. We took off a little after the scheduled departure time once the early fog had cleared and, within minutes, were soaring past the towering snow clad caps of the Langtan Range. We flew for 45 minutes parallel to the ranges and the stewardess pointed put the various peaks as they came into view. Set against the dazzling blue of the early morning, the rugged, mountainous terrain evoked sighs of awe from all on the plane, especially when we each had our turn to view the scene from the cockpit. Not once did I feel anxiety about our proximity to the seemingly endless stretch of mighty mountains alongside which we just seemed to float, as the views were just so impressive. Everest appeared, a great exultant pyramid jutting into the sky, caressed softly on its mighty peak by a faint wisp of sunlit cloud. The mood on the plane was one of awestruck happiness. If you are seated on the left side of the plane you are closer to the mountains on the outward flight but if you sit on the right, you have the view up even closer on the return journey. It was good to be met afterwards by Shree who seemed genuinely happy for me when I returned, so delighted after the exhilirating flight.
I hope to return to Nepal in the not too distant future and to undertake more encounters with the landscape and people of this stunning country. In future, I will organise all my adventures with TTG Company. He brings an open, sincere and caring soul to the organisation of travel for his clients which just add a joyous layer of gentle Nepali humanity to the experience, making it all the richer.
There are couples of airlines operating mountain flights. Flight time is about 50 minutes. Each passenger is guaranteed of a window seat. After about twenty minutes in to the flight each passenger is invited to the Pilot’s cabin to view the Mountain range from the cockpit.It was a once in a life time experience. I did not climb Mt Everest but it touched my heart. I am glad I did this. Thank you Trekking Team Group for suggesting me to take this flight, I would have missed it otherwise…
I recently did it in mid April, could see the mighty and legendary full snow covered Himalayas. I had taken flight with Simrik Air which generally guarantees a window seat to all its passengers, I did get one. Towards the end of the one hour flight they gave me a certificate of honor for the trip. The view is majestic and is absolutely luring. The air hostess even permits the passengers to take pictures from the cockpit, the pilots also co-operate. Highly recommended

Additional Information
This is ADVENTURE travel, and many of the destinations on this site are in remote, underdeveloped areas where unpredictability is the norm. Despite careful planning and organization, our adventure trips can’t be taken for granted like regular trips. Many of the places we visit lack the emergency health and safety services you’re used to in the developed world. Internal flights can be canceled, road transport is often uncomfortable and unreliable, and hotel standards may not match those of the West.
If you’re not prepared for this, you shouldn’t travel with us. The unpredictability also means that our itineraries are statements of intent, not contractual obligations. Factors such as weather, transport difficulties, and political instability might require us to change any itinerary. The trip leader will make any necessary changes after consulting with the group. Such changes are rarely significant, and we always do our best to minimize their impact. However, we cannot be held responsible for changes or delays, regardless of their cause.
