Important notes

Every traveller should carry a valid government-issued photo ID.
Every pilgrim must follow current Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board Yatra registration requirements and collect/validate the RFID-based Yatra Access Card before commencing the Yatra.
Darshan queues, Garbh Joon access, route controls, security checks and local movement remain under the control of the Shrine Board and other competent authorities.
Day-wise timings are indicative. Crowd level, weather, security checks and traveller pace can materially change actual reporting and completion time.
Tirth will display the contracted hotel category/location arrangement; any unavoidable substitution should be communicated under the booked category policy.
Travellers should disclose mobility/assistance requirements before departure and carry prescribed medicines.
Traditional Trek packages involve substantial walking and uphill/downhill movement; assistance services remain subject to permitted routes, availability and local rules.
Bhawan-Bhairon ropeway is an authority-controlled service and should be treated as subject to actual operation and ticket availability.
Do not promise skip-the-queue or priority darshan unless a specific authorised mechanism is confirmed and shown in the booking.
Shrine Board services, including helicopter booking, should be booked only through official Shrine Board channels; do not represent private-agent inventory as official.
The helicopter route lands at Sanjichhat, not directly at the Bhawan. Onward movement to Bhawan remains necessary.
Helicopter operations are weather, visibility, operational and authority dependent and can be delayed or cancelled.
Passenger names/IDs and other required booking information must match the confirmed official booking; follow the applicable operator/Shrine Board instructions.
Advance-booking windows and cancellation/refund rules can change; reconfirm current official SOP before quoting or publishing.
