Comprehensive airside ground handling, overflight permits,
diplomatic clearances, and luxury concierge services for private jets, charter operators,
and high-altitude helicopters across Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM) and South Asia.

Premier FBO & Ground Handling in Nepal and Beyond

Ghale Treks & Expedition serves as the premier Destination Management Company (DMC) and discrete Fixed-Base Operator (FBO) ground handling partner for private jet operators, diplomatic missions, family offices, high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), and commercial charter desks entering Nepalese and South Asian airspace.

Operating under strict international aviation standards and total confidentiality, our Private & VVIP Aviation FBO division manages every aspect of airside operations—from landing permissions and fast-track CIQ (Customs, Immigration, Quarantine) clearances to armed security details, jet refueling, and direct luxury helicopter transfers to Mount Everest.
