Overview

Everest Mountain Flight From Kathmandu - 2026

The Everest Mountain Flight is a scenic journey that lasts about 50 minutes to an hour. It departs from the domestic terminal of Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA) in Kathmandu. During the flight, you’ll have the chance to see 20 of Nepal's tallest peaks, starting with Langtang Lirung, the closest to Kathmandu, and moving eastward toward Mt. Everest. The plane then continues to Chamlang Peak before turning around, allowing passengers a second chance to take in the stunning views on the way back to Kathmandu.

This flight not only offers breathtaking views but also gives you a deeper understanding of Nepal's landscape. Although relatively new, the Everest Mountain Flight has quickly become a favorite among tourists, with daily flights offered by major Nepali airlines in the early mornings when the visibility of the Himalayas is at its best.

Fly over the world’s highest peaks, including Mt. Everest (8,848m), Mt. Lhotse, Nuptse, and Mt. Makalu.
Guaranteed window seat for each passenger, ensuring uninterrupted views.
Experience flying over stunning valleys, plateaus, and glaciers.
Wheelchair services are available for visitors needing assistance.

Get as close as 20 miles to Mt. Everest from your window.
Witness breathtaking Himalayan peaks, pristine lakes, and glaciers during the 50-minute flight.
