I wish it was longer. It took a very long time to board. We loved the experience but since everything was delayed we didn't have the full minutes

The New Yorker tour is advertised at a variable time of 12-15 minutes from the moment the helicopter leaves the ground until it lands at the helipad. This includes sights from the Statue of Liberty to the lower part of Central Park.

Exceeded expectations. We were lucky and had clear blue skies for our visit. Operations were smooth in the pre-flight area and all the staff were great. During the flight were almost speechless at the sensational views, the pilot provided a commentary to help pick out what we were seeing and due to the turnaround both sides got to see everything. Yes it is expensive if you just look at the cost per minute but we thought it was 100% worth it for the experience and you won't regret it!
