Thank you for choosing New York Helicopter Tours, you were given directions on how you can retrieve your pictures when you called. If you are still having trouble retrieving your pictures call the heliport office and they will guide you step by step.

Terrible experience, they literally ruined our christmas eve, the only instructions we got is to arrive 45 minutes before check in time, there is no instructions that we had to call them to let them know that we were there on time. We arrived 50 minutes before at 4:08, their bus arrived 4:20 and still we got charged late fee, they said we arrived after 4:15 which was not true. Another couple were there before us and also got charged late fee. They kept saying the bus was there at 4:15 which was a lie. They were very rude people, literally ruined our mood and the entire experience.

All directions are on your booking on what to do once you arrive at the location, also you were verbally confirmed the day before. You were late and got charged the late fee.
