The Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board (SASB) notified the day on which the online reservation for helicopter tickets for the Shri Amarnath Yatra began. Bookings for helicopters are now available on the Shri Amarnath Shrine Board's official website: https://jksasb.nic.in/onlineservices/
Devotees can now easily undertake the Shri Amarnath Yatra in a single day by traveling straight from Srinagar to Panchtarni or Srinagar to Neelgrath.
There are now four sectors (to & fro) where pilgrims can use helicopter services, instead of just two. These sectors are Srinagar to Neelgrath, Srinagar to Pahalgam, Neelgrath to Panchtarni, and Pahalgam to Panchtarni. A total of eleven helicopters will be available for passengers.
It will make it easier for pilgrims who want to finish the Shri Amarnath Yatra on the same day by adding two more sectors from Srinagar.
Devotees who choose to travel only one direction can also use this option.
The tariff table is provided below for the convenience of the devotees who want to use the helicopter service:
Srinagar-Panjtarni-via Neelgrath cost:-Rs 11700/-
Srinagar-Panjtarni-via Pahalgam Cost:-Rs 10,800/-
Srinagar-Neelgrath Cost:-Rs 11700/-
Srinagar-Pahalgam Cost:-Rs 10,800/-
Neelgrath-Panjtarni Cost:-Rs 2800/-
Pahalgam-Panjtarni Cost:-Rs 4200/-
Other Important Instructions: Since their helicopter tickets are considered Yatra permits for carrying out the Yatra (pilgrimage), Yatris who want to use the helicopter service to Panjtarni for their pilgrimage to Shri Amarnathji Cave Shrine do not need to register in advance through the designated Bank branches.
However, in accordance with guidelines established by the Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board (SASB), such Yatris will have to present Compulsory Health Certificates (CHCs) for every passenger (Yatri), officially issued by Authorized Doctors/Institutes. Long before the online helicopter booking for the Shri Amarnath Yatra opens, the list of authorized doctors and medical institutions that are permitted to issue CHC is made available online.
Note that if the CHC is not submitted first, no Yatri may board the helicopter.
Additionally, take note that the authorized physician or medical facility should have issued the recommended CHC by the stipulated date. The CHCs that were issued prior to the designated date would not be valid.
A maximum of five guests may be booked using a single credit or debit card. For the following three weeks, tickets cannot be purchased using the same credit or debit card. When the boarding pass is issued, a copy of the credit or debit card used for the reservation must be presented.
The pilgrimage is not allowed for women who are more than six weeks pregnant, elderly people over 75, or children under the age of thirteen.
You must get to Pahalgam Helipad for the Pahalgam-Panjtarni Sector and Baltal Helipad for the Baltal-Panjtarni Sector. Please take note that you must completely adhere to the directions provided by the relevant helicopter operator, including the reporting time.
The Holy Cave Shrine of Shri Amarnath is around 5–6 kilometers away from Panjtarni, where helicopter flights are available from Pahalgam or Baltal.
