There isn't a missed once you've lined up to the runway, you can't outclimb the mountain. I guess in an emergency a wing over to the right would put you flying into the valley, but that would be a last ditch effort. Lukla is service by Twin Otters, Dornier 228's and various helicopters.
I'm off to Lukla pretty soon, think I'll need some extra toilet paper.
