Rescue Flight in Nepal

There are many Helicopter companies to provide rescue service for seriously injured or ill people those who can not be treatment in Local hospital or health post in Hill side. Normally this flight operation has targeted to keep safety and protection for trekkers, climbers and expedition group from altitude sickness, accident and seriously injured. However, someone in Kathmandu must guarantee the payment of the flight before the rescue. If the clients are trekking, rafting, climbing or doing expedition through responsible tour and trekking company, they will arrange your rescue service but rescue cost must be paid by client. If Trekkers are trekking their own and got sick or injured, we can provide them on their request to rescue flight, but payment should be done before flight taking off.

Actually this flight operates for those who normally effects by altitude sickness problem.

There is other option too that is to send the message to your embassy or consulates. Send your Name, Nationality Passport detail, location and details of the injury of sickness (that is altitude illness, frostbite, heart problem, fracture, dysentery etc.). Message can be passed through the HRA radio system, police radio system, and the National Park radio system or at local airports or army camps. It almost always takes at least twenty-four hours to arrange a rescue, including passing the message.

Now a day, there are many private airlines, which provide helicopter services to evacuate trekkers in an emergency.

If your country has an embassy/consulate in Kathmandu, Register with them before you trek and record the details of rescue process. If your country does not have an embassy or consulate in Kathmandu and you are trekking on your own, you will have trouble getting rescued unless you arrange something in advance. Make sure to check this with your travel insurance scheme; you can now buy helicopter rescue insurance in Kathmandu.
