It was our first time in a helicopter over New York. Friendly staff and amazing views with get commentary from the pilot! Not the cheapest flight I found but worth every penny!

For over £300 per person, you’d at the very least expected your own helicopter, We were twinned with a large American family that marred the experience somewhat, I fly helicopters in the UK and an R44 costs £500 an hour, so to charge over £1,200 for a flight for 6 people is more than rinsing the customer, Your profit margins are off the scale Heli NY,

All our flights are shared. In order to book a private flight, all 6 seats must be purchased. Our pricing falls in line with the New York City helicopter industry standard.
