Within a few hours on Saturday, all the tickets from May 10 to June 20 were booked. Now except the monsoon season, Uttarakhand Civil Aviation Development Authority has opened the booking window for heli services for September-October.
As soon as the booking of Kedarnath Heli services started through the IRCTC website on Saturday morning, there was tremendous enthusiasm. By around 5 pm, all the heli tickets from May 10 to June 20 were booked. Yukada CEO C Ravishankar said that since June 20, there are less heli service operators in July and August.
