Overview

Trekking is one way to see Mount Everest, but travelers who are not on a long holiday in Nepal or do not want to trek can choose the Everest mountain flight. The Everest mountain flight is the most affordable way to see Mount Everest up close and quickly.

Everest mountain flight is also known as Mount Everest sightseeing flight or Everest scenic flight. You can complete the flight in one hour, and by combining airport commute and boarding, you will be done with the flight in a maximum of two hours.

Therefore, it is a fantastic day program to add to your itinerary. You do not have to reschedule your other adventures to do this tour. Additionally, the flight is family-friendly. We are taking bookings for Everest mountain flight 2025 and 2026 departures.

Mount Everest Sightseeing flight from Kathmandu:

The Mount Everest sightseeing flight starts from Kathmandu's Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA) domestic terminal. This flight is not available in other famous tourist cities like Pokhara or Chitwan, so you can only take it from Kathmandu.

The flight usually lasts 50 minutes to an hour. You will see 20 high mountains and several peaks and hills. Langtang Range is situated close to Kathmandu. It is the first range you will see as soon as the aircraft flies in the air.

Enjoy the views of mountains like Langtang Lirung, Ganesh Himal, Dorje Lakpa, Gaurishanker, etc. The flight further continues east toward Mt. Everest. Gradually, you will see Shishapangma, Cho Oyu, Everest, Lhotse, Makalu, Melungtse, Numbur, Pumori, Nuptse, Ama Dablam, Chamlang, etc.

Chamlang is the final peak. From here, the flight returns following the same route. You will have a chance to enjoy a second look at the mountains as you gradually descend to Kathmandu. Mountain views are the main highlight of the Everest mountain flight trip.

However, you will also get an idea of Nepal's vast and unique geography. You will not get to see the Terai region (plains) during the flight, but have a good look over hills and mountains.

What to expect during the flight?

Unlike the EBC helicopter tour, the Everest mountain flight is not famous among tourists. So, tickets are easily available at a low cost. Every passenger gets a window seat to enjoy the flight.

For this extraordinary journey, we have partnered with Buddha Airlines, one of the oldest, safest, and most renowned airlines in Nepal. The flight is designed for your comfort and safety, ensuring a relaxing and enjoyable experience.

You will receive a pamphlet showcasing all the 20 major mountains you will see during the flight, adding to the informative aspect of your journey. Likewise, the flight crew will help you spot the mountains.

Not only that, every passenger gets a chance to see the breathtaking view of the Himalayan range from the cockpit, a moment that will surely leave you in awe.

We kindly request our guests to follow the instructions of the crew and maintain peace and order during the flight for maximum satisfaction.
