What is the situation with the internal flight while going Everest Basecamp?
Flights go from Ramechhap to Lukla. Because of the ever-changing weather, your internal flight may be canceled or delayed for safety reasons. In this instance, your guides will book you onto the next available and safe flight at no extra cost. You will be required to pay for accommodation at the hotel for any additional nights not noted on the itinerary. All local flights (excluding helicopters) are included in the cost of your trek unless otherwise noted. It is important that you provide your passport information at the time of booking in order to process these tickets. Internal flight tickets are issued locally and will be given to you prior to the flight departure.
In the event that the flights are canceled on days 3 and 4 of your itinerary and no helicopters are available, it will not be possible for you to ascend to Everest Basecamp safely and with the required acclimatization stops.
In the unlikely event that the above does happen, the group will be taken on the Annapurna Base Camp trek. This requires no internal flights. Annapurna Base Camp is also a 16-day itinerary which reaches a maximum altitude of 4,130m, starting in the beautiful city of Pokhara.
