The Tibetan Plateau, known as the “Roof of the World,” poses significant challenges for aviation due to its extreme altitude, harsh weather, and rugged terrain.

Limited infrastructure and geopolitical tensions complicate flight planning. Despite technological advancements, these risks make it safer for airlines to avoid flying over this challenging region.
