Important Note:
The flight between Kathmandu and Lukla where the trek starts is generally reliable, but if the weather is bad, all flights will be delayed or canceled for the day. If the flight is canceled, we will attempt to get you on a chartered helicopter, but you are responsible for the extra costs in this event, which can range from $200 to $600 or more depending on the number of people on the flight.

In some itineraries, we schedule one extra day into the trek already as a buffer day in case of delays, and in some itineraries do not have an extra day after the trek but flights at times can be delayed for several days, we suggest you add a couple of extra days at the end of your trip in case of any delays. Extra days should always be scheduled at the end of the trip and not at the start.
