We made the reservation to better understand the layout of Baltimore and originally scheduled the trip at 6:30 PM but were told that we should schedule at 5PM because there was a ban against flying over downtown Baltimore at 6 PM. So we arrived early (4:40 PM) and we were told upon arrival that we would not lift off until 5:30 PM. The staff suggested that we walk up the street to get a bite to eat and return for lift off. As it turns out the nearest place ā€œup the streetā€ to eat was 0.6 miles away. So after making the 1.2 mile round trip hike and eating a hot dog while walking back we arrived back at 5:33 PM (3 minutes late). We were told that since we were late that another couple was going first. As a result we did not lift off until just before 6 PM. Instead of flying over Baltimore we went to Annapolis. On the return we did go briefly over Baltimore but not to the degree that we had requested in our preflight emails. Also the pilot seemed NOT to be well versed in the history of Baltimore and the surrounding areas. We DO NOT recommend Charm City Helicopters.

Hello, Yes, there was a Temporary Flight Restriction that populated over Baltimore and does so during all Major League Baseball games, and in your case, the Baltimore Orioles game in which we are legally bound to not fly over Baltimore by FAA Regulation. The only helicopters allowed to flying during this TFR are Police, MedEvac, and Military. We will never jeopardize safety or legality of any flight for any reason. We are by the book and always will be for our passenger's and Pilot's safety. When you arrived very early for your flight, we did offer you to grab some food since you did not want to wait for your flight time's scheduled departure of 5:30pm, but we were adamant that you needed to return on time for your scheduled departure time. Unfortunately, when you returned, it was past the 5:30 departure time and like any Airline or Professional Aviation Company, we must depart on time. Despite the return late arrival and thus closed down airspace over Baltimore by TSA/FAA, we upgraded your flight to Annapolis tour so we could fly you which is normally a significantly higher cost tour because we wanted you to have an amazing experience. According to our terms and conditions, we were supposed to cancel your tour for arriving late, but instead we upgraded you since you had arrived earlier. I don't know how much more accommodating we could be. We also only have 5 Pilots, all of which are locals and know the area very well and have never fielded a complaint about one of them being up to speed on local knowledge as they are certified tourism ambassadors in Baltimore. I believe this review is unwarranted as we went above and beyond to upgrade your flight to ensure an amazing experience since we legally could not fly what you originally wanted due to the late return arrival. Even if it was 3 minutes late, the FAA sets the regulations and we cannot break them for any reason.

I had been looking into a tour with Charm City Helicopters for a while but didn't actually book until the morning of the day I wanted the tour. The company couldn't have been more accommodating and friendly. We ended up on a private flight and we were able to upgrade to a longer flight right there on the spot. It was amazing! The pilot was friendly and we chit chatted during the flight. The women working at the actual office were knowledgeable and so helpful. Don't mistake either of them for "office help". They either have their pilot's license or are working on getting them. Any questions you have, they know the answers and then some. I wouldn't hesitate to book again with Charm City and happily recommend them to anyone looking for a way to make a visit to Baltimore unforgettable.
