Starting from the Kathmandu Valley, you can enjoy stunning views of Mount Everest without trekking. The ATR-72 flight takes off at 6:00 AM early in the morning and only operates if the weather is good. Sometimes it may look cloudy from the ground, but above the clouds the view gets all clear and breathtaking! The flight usually lasts between 50 minutes up to an hour. It takes off and lands back in Tribhuvan International Airport, Kathmandu. The planes are small, only 20 in capacity, with each person guaranteed a window seat. During the flight, you will catch a glimpse of 20 of the highest peaks to the East of Nepal starting from the Langtang Lirung peak which is the closest peak to Kathmandu, then move towards Mt. Everest in the East and finally fly to Chamlang peak. From there, the plane takes a turn and the passengers get a second look at the view while they make their way back to Kathmandu. The air hostesses were extremely helpful, pointing out all the mountains. While on board, you will receive a ‘Himalayan Peaks’ map from the flight attendant. This route map contains information about the different peaks and helps in identifying the mountains. You will also get a briefing from the flight attendant of the visible mountains. You will see stunningly beautiful mountains that are above 8000 meters such as Cho-Oyu, Shisha Pangma, Gaurishankar, Mt. Everest (Sagarmatha) and Lhotse from a guaranteed window seat on the aircraft. To commemorate your once-in-a-lifetime experience to the top of the world, you will receive an Everest Experience certificate on completion of the flight! The airlines offering Everest flights are Buddha Air, Shree Airlines and Yeti Airlines. I took the Buddha Air flight as a friend who is a local had recommended it and I’ve had wonderful experiences with Buddha Air. Buddha Air provides mountain flights every day, early in the mornings, when the Himalayas views are the best! The flight costed me ₹8985 . I booked it from Buddha Air App. It was a great experience I will never forget! ❤️ #tourism_nepal #nepal #nepaltravel #solotravel #travelguide #BuddhaAir #shillong #nepalisbeautiful #everest #mountainflight
