Ukulibaziseka kweNdiza kunye nokurhoxiswa kokuya eLukla- Isikhokelo sokuHamba
Idolophu encinci yaseLukla yindawo yokuqala phantse zonke iihambo zokuhamba Ingingqi yaseKhumbu. Imi kumphakamo oziimitha ezingama-2,860, iLukla yindawo yokuqala abathi abakhweli baziswe kuyo xa bendwendwela iKhumbu. Yingqokelela yezindlu ezincinci kunye neehotele ezisasazeke ngaphakathi kufutshane nesikhululo seenqwelomoya sommandla kuphela- Ukugqiba kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya saseHillary. Ngenxa yokuvelela kwayo, uLukla utshintshile ukusuka kwindawo encinci yamafama ukuya kwindawo yentengiso kulo mmandla ohambelana neNamche Bazaar. Ngenxa yokuba abahambahambayo bahlala ubusuku bonke eLukla ngexesha Everest Treks, le dolophu ibone ukunyuka kwenani lezindlu zeendwendwe kunye neehotele zodidi oluphezulu kwiminyaka yakutshanje. Ukusuka eKathmandu, kuthatha imizuzu engama-40 ukufika eLukla ngenqwelo-moya.
ISikhululo seenqwelomoya saseHillary eLukla
Ikwabizwa ngokuba sisikhululo seenqwelomoya iLukla, iTenzing Hillary Airport sisikhululo seenqwelomoya esincinci esihlala sibizwa ngokuba yenye ye ezona zikhululo zeenqwelo moya ziyingozi emhlabeni. Isikhululo seenqwelo-moya siphakathi kwezona ndawo zidumileyo zothutho phakathi kweNepal kunye neeNtaba ze-Everest, kwaye ezinye iindlela zokufikelela eKhumbu ziintsuku ezinde zokuhamba ngeenyawo. Iinqwelo-moya zemihla ngemihla ziya/zibuya kwisikhululo seenqwelo-moya ngexesha lasemini kunye nemozulu entle. Ngokungafaniyo nelanga elihlala likhanya eKathmandu, uLukla uhlala efumana imvula, ngamanye amaxesha ngaxeshanye nokungabikho kwemvula kwezinye iindawo zelizwe. Indawo kaLukla entabeni ivumela umoya omkhulu, ukugquma kwamafu axineneyo, kunye nokutshintsha kokubonakala. Oku, ngenxa yoko, kudla ngokukhokelela ekulibazisekeni kweenqwelo-moya okanye ukuvalwa kwesikhululo seenqwelo-moya.
Isikhululo seenqwelomoya iLukla sakhiwa ngo-1964. Ulwakhiwo lwenziwa phantsi kweliso likaSir Edmund Hillary, kwaye kude kube kutshanje ngo-2001, umgaqo weenqwelo-moya wawungagaywanga kakuhle. Yathiywa ngokutsha ngo-2008 ngokuhlonipha uMhlekazi u-Edmund Hillary kunye nokuQeqesha iNorgay Sherpa, abantu bokuqala ukuba bafikelele kwincopho yeNtaba i-Everest. Umzila weenqwelo-moya ubude beemitha ezingama-527 kunye neemitha ezingama-30 ububanzi kwaye isikhumulo sezindiza sisetyenziselwa kakhulu iinqwelomoya zabahambi kunye nokuthuthwa kwempahla kunye nempahla ukuya eLukla nakwezinye iilali ezikumantla alo mmandla, njengoko kungekho ndlela yokufikelela kwindlela.
Iinqwelomoya ezihlayo okanye ezisuka kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya iLukla kufuneka zisebenzise indlela enye. Umhlaba ophakamileyo uvala ithemba esele liphantsi lokujikeleza kwindlela emfutshane yokugqibela yenqwelo-moya, kwaye umgaqo weenqwelo-moya uphela kwithontsi eneengile engumnqantsa ukuya kwintlambo engezantsi. Ngaloo ndlela, ukuhlala kunye nokusuka eLukla kunzima. I-Civil Aviation Authority yaseNepal, ngenxa yoko, ibeke imigangatho ephezulu apho kuphela abaqhubi beenqwelo-moya abanamava abaye bagqiba ubuncinane i-100 i-short-take-off-and-landing (STOL) imisebenzi evumelekileyo ukuba bahlale kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya. Abaqhubi beenqwelo-moya kufuneka kwakhona babe ngaphezu konyaka omnye wamava e-STOL eNepal kwaye kufuneka babe bagqibile imisebenzi elishumi eLukla kunye nomqhubi wenqwelomoya oqinisekisiweyo.
Nangona kunjalo, nangona kukho ubunzima, uLukla unenye ye Izikhululo zeenqwelomoya ezixakekileyo eNepal. Iingozi zenzeke kunqabile, kwaye isikhululo seenqwelomoya sithathwa njengesona sikhululo seenqwelomoya zintle ehlabathini. Ijikelezwe ziiHimalayas ezinkulu kunye neenduli eziphakamileyo ze-emeraldi ezigubungela ilali.
Ngaba iinqwelomoya eziya eLukla zikhuselekile?
Nangona idume ngokuba sesona sikhululo seenqwelo-moya siyingozi kakhulu emhlabeni, iSikhululo seenqwelo-moya saseLukla senza malunga nama-20 okanye ama-30 okufika kweenqwelo-moya yonke imihla ngexesha leeholide ezixakekileyo. Phantse isiqingatha sabahambi ngeenyawo abatyelela iNepal minyaka le badla ngokubhabha eLukla. Nangona isikhululo seenqwelo-moya saseLukla siyingozi ngakumbi ngokwezibalo kunesikhululo seenqwelo-moya esiqhelekileyo, sisakhuselekile. Amagosa eenqwelo-moya zaseNepal kunye neenkampani zeenqwelo-moya zasekuhlaleni angqongqo kakhulu kwiimeko zokubhabha ezamkelekileyo kunye nemigaqo yeenqwelo-moya ezenza uhambo oluya eLukla.
Iinqwelomoya zeNgingqi eziqhagamshela kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya saseLukla
Iinqwelomoya ezine zasekuhlaleni zibhabha ziye eLukla, ezintathu zivela eManthali, kwaye enye ivela eKathmandu. Iinqwelomoya zaseNepal ziqhagamshela eLukla zivela eKathmandu, ngelixa iSita Air, iSummit Air, kunye neTara Air ziqhagamshela eLukla ngeManthali. Okwangoku, iinqwelomoya ezivela eKathmandu ukuya eLukla zimisiwe. (Ulwazi oluninzi ngezantsi)
ISita Airlines ineemodeli ezintathu zeenqwelo-moya zeDornier DO 228. Ingathwala abakhweli abali-13. ITara Airlines ineemodeli ezintathu zeenqwelo-moya zeDornier DO 228 kunye neemodeli ezimbini zeenqwelo-moya zeTwin Otter DHC 6/300. Ingathwala nabakhweli abali-13. Ngokufanayo, iSummit Airlines ineemodeli ezintathu zeenqwelo-moya zeTurbolet LET L-410. Ingathwala abakhweli abali-19.
Uyibhukisha njani iFlight ukuya eLukla
Enye yeendlela ezilula zokubhukisha inqwelomoya eya eLukla kukubhukisha amatikiti kwi-intanethi. Ukuba uhamba ne-arhente yokuhamba, baya kukukhathalela konke ukubhukisha iinqwelomoya ukuya/ukusuka eLukla kuwe. Nangona kunjalo, ezona nqwelomoya zibalaseleyo zihlala zifumaneka lula kwi-intanethi kwaye kukho iinqwelo-moya ezahlukeneyo zabantwana abangaphantsi kweminyaka eli-12. Ngokunjalo, kucetyiswa kakhulu ukuba uthenge amatikiti amabini. Ikwangumbono olungileyo ukuba neentsuku ze-buffer kuhambo xa isiza kwiinqwelomoya zikaLukla kuba ahlala ekhona amathuba okuba inqwelo moya ifumane ulibaziseko okanye irhoxiswe ngenxa yezizathu ezifana nemozulu.
Lixabisa malini itikiti lokuya eLukla?
Iinqwelomoya ezisuka eKathmandu zisiya eLukla zixabisa iUSD 179. Iinqwelomoya phakathi kweRamechap neLukla zimiselwe kwiUSD 147. Ezi ziinqwelomoya eziqhelekileyo. Nangona kunjalo, kwiinqwelomoya ezisuka eKathmandu ukuya eLukla, ixabiso linokwahluka ukusuka kwi-USD 168 ukuya kwi-USD 189. Ukwahluka kusenokuba ngenxa yezizathu ezininzi ezahlukeneyo, njengamaphothali athile anika izaphulelo ngelixa abanye banokongeza uphawu.
Ukufika kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya eKathmandu
Ungafumana iteksi eKathmandu ukuya kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya saseTribhuvan. Intlawulo yekhebhu ingaxabisa malunga ne-NPR eyi-1000. Kuyacetyiswa ukuba ufike kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya ubuncinci iyure enye phambi kwexesha lakho lokubhabha.
Ingaba zikhona iindlela ezizezinye zokuya eLukla ngaphandle kokubhabha?
Kukho iinketho ezikhoyo zohambo ukuya e-Everest ngaphandle kokubhabha. Olunye ukhetho lubandakanya uhambo oluya eLukla nokuba usuka eJiri, eSalleri okanye eKharihola. Nangona kunjalo, ukuhamba uhambo oluya eLukla endaweni yokubhabha kuthatha malunga neentsuku ezi-3 ukuya kwezisi-8.
UCwangciso lokuLibazisa
Ngenxa yesikhundla sikaLukla kunye nokuphakama, iimeko zemozulu kunye nokubonakala zihlala ziguquguquka kwaye zinokutshintsha ngokukhawuleza. Ke, iishedyuli zenqwelomoya eziya eLukla zinokuba nzima kwaye kunzima ukuziqikelela. Iinqwelomoya azithathi amathuba kwiimeko zemozulu kwaye ziya kubuyisela inqwelomoya eya eKathmandu ukusuka naphi na uhambo lwayo kunokubeka emngciphekweni wokufika okungakhuselekanga ukuba iimeko zemozulu ziyatshintsha ukususela oko isuke.
Ngokunjalo, ukulibaziseka kwenqwelomoya kuxhaphake kakhulu. Zinokuthi zenzeke nangaliphi na ixesha lonyaka kodwa zinokwenzeka ngokukodwa ngexesha lexesha le-monsoon (ngasekupheleni kukaMeyi ukuya ekuqaleni kukaSeptemba). Ukuba inqwelomoya yakho ilibazisekile, kuya kufuneka uphinde ucwangcise inqwelomoya elandelayo. Ii-arhente zokuhamba ziyakukhathalela ukuhlengahlengiswa kwakho ukuba ubaqeshele uhambo. Njengoko iimeko zaseLukla zinokutshintsha ngokukhawuleza, ukucwangcisa kwakhona kunokuba kungekudala emva kokuhamba kwakho okucwangcisiweyo, okanye kungathatha kangangeentsuku ezimbalwa kamva- kunzima kakhulu ukuqikelela. Oku, ewe, kunokuba buhlungu, kodwa yinxalenye yohambo oluya kwingingqi ye-Everest.
Kucetyiswa kakhulu ukuba wongeze ubuncinane usuku olunye okanye ezimbini ekupheleni kohambo ukuze kube lula ukuguquguquka xa kukho ukulibaziseka. Iintsuku ezongezelelweyo kufuneka zicwangciswe rhoqo ekupheleni kohambo, njengoko oku kubonelela ngokuguquguquka kohambo lokuhamba ngeenyawo xa kukho ukulibaziseka kwemozulu.
Isibonelelo somthwalo
Nangona ingaqhelekanga, kunokwenzeka ukuba umthwalo wakho unokutshintshelwa kwenye inqwelomoya okanye ulibazisekile yinqwelomoya. Ngaloo ndlela, kubalulekile ukuqiniseka ukuba unazo zonke izinto zakho zexabiso kwizinto oqhubeka nazo. Unakho ukuthwala ubuninzi be-10Kg yemithwalo (amaqhekeza amabini) kunye nobuninzi be-5kg ye-hand-uthwale indiza yakho ye-Lukla. Ukuba ufuna ukuthwala ngaphezulu kwe-15kg, kuya kufuneka uhlawule i-USD 1 eyongezelelweyo ngekg.
Uhlaziyo kunye nolwazi malunga neenqwelo-moya eziphambukisiweyo zaseKathmandu-Lukla ezivela eRamechap
Bonke abaSebenzi be-Trekking eNepal bazisiwe yiNepal Aviation Authority ukuba iinqwelomoya eziya kwaye zibuya eLukla ziza kuphambukiswa ukusuka eKathmandu ukuya eRamechap, ukuqala ngomhla woku-1 ku-Okthobha 2019. I-Ramechap sisikhululo seenqwelomoya esincinci esikwiikhilomitha ezingama-140 (iikhilomitha ezingama-85) ukusuka eKathmandu. Ukuqhuba ukuya kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya saseRamechap kuthatha malunga neeyure ezi-4 ukusuka eKathmandu, kwaye ukubuyela eKathmandu kunokuthatha phakathi kweeyure ezi-5 kunye ne-6, kuxhomekeke kwi-traffic.
Olu tshintsho luchaphazela bonke abakhenkethi, nokuba baphi inkampani yabakhenkethi, abaya kwiNgingqi ye-Everest. Nangona iyinto ephazamisayo kwaye yongeza umceli mngeni ongakumbi kuhambo kunye nokuhamba ubuyela emva nangaphezulu ukuya eRamechap, linyathelo eliyimfuneko elithathiweyo ngenxa yokuxinana komoya okuphezulu kwi-Kathmandu-Lukla Flights. Umgca wesilivere kolu mzamo kukuba iSikhululo seenqwelomoya saseRamechap yeyona ndlela ifanelekileyo yokubhabha uye eLukla njengoko esi sikhululo seenqwelomoya sizinikele kuphela ekusebenzeni iinqwelomoya zeLukla kuphela, sinyusa amathuba akho okufika e-Everest ngaphandle kwezizathu ezifana nemozulu kunye nokuxinana.
isiphelo
Ummandla we-Everest likhaya le-Everest Himalayas kunye nabantu bohlanga lwamaSherpa. Ukuhamba ngetrekking ukuya e-Everest lolona hambo lubalaseleyo kwihlabathi. Phezu kwazo nje iinkxwaleko umntu anokujamelana nazo kuhambo lwenqwelo-moya oluya kummandla, abususi ubuhle nokumangalisayo kohambo lokuhamba.
