Helicopter ticket booking help for pilgrims from Kolkata: registration and the Compulsory Health Certificate in West Bengal, the Baltal or Pahalgam to Panchtarni sector for your registered date, and travel from Kolkata to Srinagar by flight or train. Send your dates and we reply with availability.
Pilgrims from Kolkata book the Amarnath helicopter in three steps: register for the yatra with a Compulsory Health Certificate from an authorised doctor in West Bengal, buy the helicopter ticket for the same date and route through the Shrine Board's authorised channel when sales open, and arrange the journey from Kolkata to Srinagar and the base camp. We do all three for pilgrims who book a package with us, and the ticket booking alone for pilgrims who already have their travel.
The two sectors are Baltal to Panchtarni (about ₹2,800 one way in recent seasons, 7 minutes) and Pahalgam to Panchtarni (about ₹4,900 one way, 20 minutes). From the Panchtarni helipad the holy cave is 6 km on foot, pony or palki. Tickets are issued per pilgrim for one date and need the registration number and ID.
From Kolkata, Srinagar has direct flights in the yatra season (about 3 hours, or via Delhi), and the Himgiri Express, Jammu Tawi Express runs to Jammu Tawi (about 36 hours). Helicopter sales usually open in May or June for the late June or July start, and the first-week dates sell out within days.
Five steps, in order. We handle all of them for package pilgrims.
