How booking a helicopter works

- You pay only after accepting the quote, never into a personal account.

When do helicopters fly?
Charters fly in daylight and fair weather. Mountain weather can delay flights by hours, sometimes to the next day, so keep a spare day in the plan. See the best time for Chardham Yatra by helicopter and our guide to helicopter services in India.
