Yes, typically a 5-10kg limit per person. Heavy trekking gear must be sent via cargo flight or porter to avoid extra fees.

Please arrive at least 60-90 minutes before departure for check-in, weight verification, and safety briefings.

The flight itself is covered, but if you plan to trek from Lukla, you must carry valid TIMS and National Park permits.
