Yeti Airlines fleet
Aircraft
Yeti Airlines operates a streamlined fleet of ATR 72-500 turboprop aircraft. This twin-engine, high-wing design is specifically engineered for regional operations in challenging environments, making it ideal for Nepal's mountain terrain and remote airfields.
The ATR 72-500 is a workhorse of regional aviation, known for fuel efficiency, reliability on unprepared strips, and strong performance at high altitudes. Its pressurized cabin provides passenger comfort on routes that may climb to significant elevations. The aircraft typically seats around 70 passengers, though configurations may vary. This fleet composition reflects the airline's focus on connecting underserved Himalayan communities where larger aircraft cannot operate economically or safely.
