The helicopter tour experience was fantastic. The only part that I wish they would improve is explaining to the parking crew that customers do not like to be yelled at. The two guys that were at the parking sort of ruined the beginning of this adventure, but everything else was fine afterwards.

Thank you for choosing New York Helicopter Tours, no one was yelling at you or any other customers due to the helicopters coming and going it is very hard for anyone to talk on a normal tone.

We booked a 25 minute tour, the most expensive. There was an option for 15 minutes, 19 and 25 minutes. I decided it was better to see more. In fact, 17 minutes passed from takeoff to landing. There were 6 people in the cabin and we all sat very, very tightly. I thought that our flight would be over the city, but in fact it turned out to be over the river: one way and back. Therefore, Manhattan and the skyscrapers were relatively far away. Just like the Statue of Liberty, we were a looooong distance away from the statue, as opposed to other helicopters that flew much closer to the objects of interest. When, upon returning, I asked the receptionist why we had flown for only 17 minutes, she answered irritably: we have everything written down, while you left here and now came in, 25 minutes have passed. To the question: 25 minutes including all procedures or 25 minutes of flight? She replied: that everything is correct with us, we do not accept any complaints and turned away in the other direction. I will say frankly that I was very disappointed. My expectations were much higher than what I saw.

You did take your flight of approximately 25min just like it says on the website, as for the people on the flight they had the same tour as you and ALL flights are shared.

Booked last minute as we were scheduled on another provider the next day and weather was going to be bad. They were 30 minutes late starting our flight after charging us a 500.00 late fee for being there only 28 minutes in advance (we never received a confirmation email to know this). It was a shake down. The other provider did not have a late fee clause, this is just another way for them to make money. We’ve ridden in numerous helicopters and this one was old and the fuel smell was so bad the kids and I were nauseous and I had to go back to the hotel to wash my hair and change clothes as the smell was so bad . On top of that, a gentleman and his son were livid after their flight (before ours) saying their door flew open mid flight and it scared their family to death. Go with someone else. There are numerous other operators with newer helicopters and less extortionist practices.

You DID NOT READ the term of service which was in your booking like you stated in the office. You came 39min BEFORE your flight that is why you were charged a late fee.
