Nepal Mountain Flight

Immerse into the Everest Experience flight with a Hiking Annapurna and witness once in a lifetime experience in Nepal. Mountain flight is being the best alternative to the Helicopter tour since we can fly over the Himalayas in an hour-long journey in a plane inspecting the Mighty Himalayas in the North.

Everest base camp helicopter landing is the only flight to the Everest base camp. However, it’s going to cost you way more expensive than Everest Mountain flight. Hence, Mt. Everest flight tour is a better choice to make for the best Everest experience flight in a short duration of time.

Nepal Mountain Flight Highlights:

• Fly over the most stunning mountains on the planet Mount Everest(8848m), Mt. Lhotse, Nuptse, Mt. Makalu, Mt. Annapurna, and some more
• Window seat guaranteed for each traveler if the group is small

Other mountains that can be viewed at close range are Nuptse (7879 M), Lhotse (8501 M), Cho Oyu (8000M), Makalu (8475 M) and Kanchenjunga (8584 M). Yeti Airlines operates SAAB-340 and Dornier-228 Airlinescraft for Mountain Flights. Both Airlinescraft have large and clear windows and provide superlative sights of the Great Himalayan Range.

Okay, so you didn't quite trek up the 8848 meters, but hey! it's still an Instagram moment, and a memorable one at that! The tour takes you across the range with views of the peaks from their South Side. You see the Everest in the middle, flanked on her sides with Mt Nuptse and Mt Lhotse, the 2nd highest in the range.

The mountains of Shartse, Baruntse, Kanchungtse and Makalu will be visible on a clear day. And on the other side of Everest you will have Ama Dablam at 6856m, the Pumo Ri at 7161m, the Gyachung Kang at 7952m and far away in the distance Cho Oyu at a majestic 8188m. It's a fabulous sight of some of the world's most majestic snow-capped peaks, framed over a backdrop of a most beautiful blue sky and under a series of soft wispy clouds.

And while you sit back coasting over the Sagarmatha National Park, with the Mt. Everest as close as you could ever see, do please raise a toast to our own Tenzing Norgay, who reached the summit of Everest on May 29, 1953, becoming the first person to stand atop the world's highest mountain.
