The trip was excellent, very well organized and the staff were very kind and told us all we needed to know for a safe experience. The pilot gave us a running commentary of all the interesting sights in New York.

My experience at HeliNY was absolutely incredible! The helicopter flight was one of the best experiences of my life and left me speechless. Our pilot Magnus was personable, informative and funny! What really made the experience even better was the incredible crew that works there. Brian and Roberto provided top class customer service and safety instructions. They went above and beyond to make this a day I would never forget. Big shout out to Brian for making my request to sit up front next to our pilot Magnus come to fruition. And a big thank you to Roberto for remembering as I walked out the door to leave that I didn't have my hat on and left it inside. If you're looking for a helicopter adventure in NYC look no further then HeliNY!
