To ensure a seamless transition from the mountains to the city, it is highly advisable to secure your helicopter flight reservation in advance.
Tenzing-Hillary Airport, which is also called Lukla Airport (IATA: LUA), is where the beautiful trip starts. This airport is very important because it is where the famous trip to Mount Everest's base camp begins and, for many people, where it ends in a happy way.
