IRCTC, a popular government-owned site for ticket booking, has started helicopter booking for Kedarnath, so the pilgrims of Chardham Yatra can reserve a seat from home. The facility went live on the IRCTC portal on October 9 at 3 p.m. Kedarnath is the second shrine to get helicopter booking after Hemkund Sahib. Pilgrims can book flights for travel between October 16 and November 9, 2026, noting that the temple will close for winter from November 11 (2026) onwards.
