Before you reserve
Sharing Heli Nepal coordinates bookings with helicopter operators. Sending a request does not reserve an aircraft or confirm a departure. The flight desk confirms the route, passenger requirements and written fare before travel.
Shared seats depend on a suitable passenger group, aircraft availability and payload. Ask how your requested date will be handled if a group does not form. A private charter fare is for the quoted helicopter sector, not a fare multiplied by the number of passengers. Passenger capacity remains subject to the operator's weight and operating limits.
Ask the desk to itemise permits, transfers, meals, waiting time, taxes and any extra sectors in your quote. Discuss mobility needs and any health or altitude concerns before committing; a short flight does not remove altitude exposure. Consult a clinician for personal advice; see the CDC high-altitude travel guidance.
Weather can change the schedule or prevent a landing. Keep flexibility for onward travel and check the agreed cancellation and payment terms. Review weight and baggage planning and flight information before sending passenger details.

FAQs
Can I connect to an international flight the same day?
Do not treat a requested helicopter arrival as a protected onward connection. Discuss a buffer and disruption options before purchasing time-sensitive onward travel.
