i booked the Grand Island and it only lasted 18.5 minutes. The Helicopter did not take the path as outlined in the brochure(it did not take in Yankee stadium not did it go over to the Veresanno bridge. My camcorder shows a time of 18.5 minutes . It was meant to be 25 to 30 mins. I believe i got the tour listed below the grand island. Is there anything that can be done. I will be in new york again next year

Be prepared to encounter chaos. They will tell you to come 15 minutes early and then you will wait one hour with no one really telling you what is going on. If you are a size 8 or below you will fit nicely in the seats. Be prepared to squeeze if you are over that.
