Delhi to Leh travel notes
Leh’s airport sits at over 10,600 ft, among the highest airports in the world. Thin air cuts engine power and lift, so the operator may limit passengers, baggage or fuel.
Mountain weather and the high altitude make timing matter. Operators often prefer the cooler part of the day, and a weather delay is a real possibility.
