Bad Weather Conditions:

  • Flying in hills is subjected to bad weather conditions, many Force Majeure factors like delayed Air Traffic Clearances/ Permissions, VVIP movements, valley flying by Indian Air Force (NOTAM), sudden occurrence of technical snag in aircraft, illness of flying crew or late reporting of the passengers at helipads, among others. Therefore, passengers must be prepared to face any eventuality and inconvenience in case of such scenarios. We strongly advise our passengers to keep one additional day at hand, over & above the 5N6D period, to avoid inconvenience in case passengers get stuck at any of the destinations due to bad weather or force majeure scenarios. Due to backlog / bad weather or any natural circumstance, there can be amendments in your itinerary where we can cover either Dodham, Ekdham, or Teendham in 1 or 2 days. And in some circumstances, your trip may be cancelled on the day of arrival due to the above conditions with a full refund except for the expenses that occurred in Dehradun.

Important Guidelines

  • As this is NSOP (Non-scheduled operations) flying, flying time for the next day is conveyed to passengers a night prior once the operation plan is finalized in the evening/ night after sunset.
  • In case of emergency and bad weather scenarios, passengers will be taken back to Dehradun by road.
  • If there is any technical snag in the helicopter or any sudden testing required there might be a possibility of delay or the passenger may fly on the next day. In case of a major part failure, your trip may be canceled in between the Yatra.
  • There can be a waiting time at every helipad for up to 2 hours approx. depending upon multiple factors like Bad Weather, NOTAM & other operational challenges, etc.
  • On the last day of the Heli-tour, we will try to depart from Badri as early as possible so that our group is not stuck in the bad weather scenario. In this case, we may skip the morning breakfast at Badrinath. In case the client wants to have breakfast at Dehradun it will be at an additional cost.
  • Aadhar Card copy is mandatory to be submitted in advance before the date of flight by all Indian passengers, and Passport in case of foreign nationals.
  • Any donations, tips, pithy, palki/pony (except Yamunotri) and porter charges shall be borne by the passengers.
  • Kedarnath temple has three base camps i.e., Phata/ Guptkashi/ Sersi. In the case of big groups, flying in different helicopters may land at different base camps on different helipads. We have to complete the entire yatra as per the group in the same helicopter since each helicopter has different flying timings and permissions.
  • At each door, we have our informed handlers and in case of any assistance client has to reach out to the handlers.
  • Any extra night halt except this itinerary due to any circumstances will be borne by the customers and the client has to pay the amount on actuals in the hotel directly.
  • If a client wants to stay at Kedarnath Top, he/ she has to sign a declaration stating that the Operating company is not responsible for any service challenges and emergencies, all the arrangements will be done by our crew members but the payment has to be made by client only on actuals.
  • Any last-minute customization in the itinerary will not be possible as all the logistics are booked well in advance at the time of booking therefore client needs to update the Akbar Holidays Team if there are any add-ons required in the package.
  • Mobile Network: (Kharsali- Airtel, GIO & BSNL) | (Harsil- Airtel, GIO & BSNL) | (Kedarnath - Airtel, GIO & BSNL) | (Badrinath - Airtel, GIO & BSNL).
  • At Yamunotri, in case the Palki is not available we may arrange a pony for the same.
