Who can take the Amarnath helicopter: the 13 to 70 age limit set by the Shrine Board, the pregnancy rule, the health certificate, and what the limits mean for children and senior citizens.
The age limit for the Amarnath Yatra, and therefore for the helicopter, is set by the Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board: pilgrims must be at least 13 and not more than 70 years old on the date of the yatra. Women more than six weeks pregnant are not permitted. The limits apply to the helicopter because every ticket is issued against a yatra registration, which enforces them.
Every pilgrim within the age limit must carry a Compulsory Health Certificate from a doctor or hospital on the authorised list, issued after the date the Board announces each year. The cave is at about 3,888 m and the Panchtarni helipad at 3,650 m, so the certificate screens for heart, lung, blood pressure and other conditions that altitude worsens.
There is no separate helicopter age limit, no concession fare and no infant rule, because children below 13 cannot register. Senior citizens up to 70 fly on the same ticket and are advised the pony or palki from Panchtarni.
| Rule | Detail |
|---|---|
| Age | 13 to 70 years on the yatra date, as per the Shrine Board |
| Pregnancy | Women more than six weeks pregnant are not permitted |
| Health certificate | Compulsory Health Certificate (CHC) in the Board format from an authorised doctor or institution, issued after the announced date |

| Fitness advice | Walk 4 to 5 km daily for a month before the yatra; breathing exercises |
| Proof of age | Photo ID with date of birth at registration and at the helipad |
The CHC is issued only by doctors and institutions on the list published by the Shrine Board for each state, in the prescribed format and after the date announced for the season. See the medical test hospital list and the registration guide. We send the format and the list for your state when you book.

No. The Shrine Board age limit is 13 to 70 for the yatra, and helicopter tickets are issued only against a yatra registration.
The yatra limit of 70 applies. Pilgrims above 70 cannot register and therefore cannot fly, even with a fitness certificate.
Yes. The CHC is part of the yatra registration for every pilgrim, whichever way they reach the cave.
Only through the Shrine Board's authorised online channel and the counters of the approved operators. Tickets are per pilgrim, for one date and one sector, against the yatra registration number. We book them for package pilgrims on the opening day.
About ₹2,800 one way from Baltal and ₹4,900 one way from Pahalgam to Panchtarni in recent seasons. The Shrine Board publishes the 2027 fare with the schedule.
No. It depends on Shrine Board and security approval each season and on weather every day. In some years no helicopter service was operated. Our packages keep a pony, palki or trek backup and refund the ticket if the sector does not fly.
About 6 km, 2 to 3 hours on foot each way. Ponies and palkis are available at the helipad at rates fixed by the district administration.
