I would say the flight itself was very phenomenal and the pilot was super nice, she was very warm and welcoming. However, it was my birthday and I didn’t feel the welcome and just overall hospitality... See more

The helicopter tour itself was nice and the staff were professional. However, my experience before the flight was very disappointing. We paid around $900 for 2 adults and 2 children, and when we arrived, we were told that because we had not arrived 1 hour early, we had to either pay an additional $300 immediately or wait another 15 minutes and pay $500. We felt pressured into choosing the more expensive option because of our flight schedule. These extra charges were not clearly explained when we booked, and the situation felt unfair and very stressful, especially when traveling with children. While the tour was enjoyable, the way these additional fees were handled left a very negative impression.

Pitot was funny. Although winds were a little high the professionalism of the pilot made it seem very calm.

Everything was amazing!! We arrived 5 minutes late after getting stuck in traffic and from arriving everybody was so helpful.
We had James as our pilot and my daughter was his copilot. From start to finish we could not fault James, he was amazing with our adrenaline daughter. Even allowed her to turn off the plane and talked to her all the helicopter journey. James made the experience for her and we can’t thank him enough.
If you are thinking of booking, do it! You will not regret it

Very cool experience but a bit expensive and hard to get to. A shuttle from nyc would help

It was a very, very nice experience for us. The weather was not very ideal, but the flight was completed without any problems. Before the flight, all the people were nice and helpful. I don’t remember his name, but the man who prepped us with the security gear before the flight was the best. And the views… It was worth it. We were thinking about this as a once in a lifetime experience, but now we think we’d do it again.

A helicopter flight over Manhattan was an unforgettable experience. The views were absolutely amazing, especially seeing the skyline, Central Park, the Statue of Liberty, and all the famous buildings from above. Everything was well organized, the staff were friendly, and the flight felt safe and exciting at the same time.
It is definitely one of the best things to do in New York. I highly recommend it!

Location is pretty far out and a bit sketchy. Staff super unfriendly and arrogant. Besides the safety instructions, no clear communication on what to expect next. You get taken out to the platform and back, that’s about it. Nobody offered to take a picture to make this experience memorable. All in all super expensive but mediocre experience. Adding taxi cost to NJ and back, plus the additional fees, we probably would have been better off just selecting one of the Manahattan operators who didn’t have the flashy Insta videos.

Everything was so smooth. The staff is very helpful and the whole thing is very well organized. We got the 30’ package even if we originally booked the 16’ flight, but got a great price on the spot. My travel companion was affraid of flying but the crew did a great job at encouraging him. Our pilot was Robert, he did a great job! The overall experience was great and the 30’ flight is worth every cent. It feels the shorter flight would be too short.

It was amazing, the best part was the tilted turn and hanging legs outside.

Reply from FlyNYON
The person who did the check in was horrible , he acted like he was doing us a favor , I can’t remember his name.
Also you ask us to be 1 hour and 15 our turn was at 12 and we ended doing t the activity until 12:30 . So we waisted 2 hours waiting.
The pilot was extraordinary !!!

It was a good experience overall; however, we paid for the guaranteed window seat with our feet hanging outside, but we were assigned to a seat that only had a window and did not offer that experience.
This completely ruined our expectations of having the full experience we had paid for. What was even more disappointing was the company’s lack of concern regarding this issue and their claim that a closed window seat is considered the same as a “feet-out” seat.
To make matters worse, another couple who did not pay for the feet-out seat upgrade ended up having a much better experience than we did, even though we paid more for it.
Passenger weight was clearly not a valid reason for assigning us to this poor seat, as our body weights were very similar to theirs. Therefore, there was no apparent justification for placing us in a seat that did not provide the experience we specifically paid extra to receive.

I was assigned a seat between two larger individuals and was squeezed in there like a sardine. I couldn't move my arm freely or use my phone to film the scenery. I feel that my experience was incomplete; I could barely see anything and couldn't stretch out my legs. I had booked an 11:00 AM flight—I was at the airport by 9:30—but the flight itself didn't depart until after 12:00, which complicated my subsequent plans.
