Q&A

Q: What if the weather is bad on the day of the booked helicopter tour?

A: If the weather doesn't cooperate, they'll usually contact you to reschedule. Just keep an eye on the forecast leading up to your flight. They want to ensure safety and a great experience. You can also check with other guests to see how flexible everyone is with dates!

Q: Is there an age requirement for this helicopter tour?

A: Yes, kids need to be at least 2 years old to join the tour. All passengers under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. So if you're thinking of gifting this, make sure the recipient's kids are old enough to enjoy the ride!

Q: How do we get to Essex County Airport from NYC? Is parking easy?

A: To get to Essex County Airport, you can take a taxi, which takes about 45 minutes from Midtown. If you prefer public transport, take a bus from Port Authority. Parking is available at the airport but can fill up quickly, so I'd recommend arriving early if you're driving.

Just went on the NYC Night Lights Helicopter Tour! Unreal!!

I did the helicopter tour last weekend, and OMG, it was breathtaking! We left from Essex County Airport, and the views of the city at night were just magical. Seeing the Statue of Liberty lit up was the highlight for me. It’s about 30-35 minutes long and totally worth it. I’m thinking of gifting this to my parents for their anniversary. Anyone else done it? Any tips?

Gifting the Helicopter Tour for my boyfriend's birthday!

I'm planning to surprise my boyfriend with the NYC Night Lights Helicopter Tour. He loves heights and views, and I think this would be an epic gift! The only thing I'm worried about is the weather. If it rains, can I easily reschedule? Has anyone done this as a gift before?
