Q&A

Q: What's the age limit for kids on this helicopter tour?

A: There's no strict age limit, but kids under 2 can ride for free on an adult's lap. Just keep in mind that everyone over 2 needs their own seat! It’s a pretty unforgettable experience for the little ones, so if they're thrill-seekers, this could be a great gift!

Q: Is there a chance of cancellations due to weather, and how does rescheduling work?

A: Yes, weather can definitely affect the tours. If it’s canceled, you can usually reschedule for another day, but it’s best to do it soon since they can fill up fast. Just check their policy on rescheduling when you book!

Q: What should I wear for the helicopter tour?

A: Dress comfortably! Layers are key because it can get chilly up there. Closed-toe shoes are a must since you’ll be in a helicopter. And don't forget sunglasses to shield your eyes from the sun reflecting off all those buildings!

Thinking of gifting a helicopter tour for my partner's birthday!

I’m really thinking about getting the NYC Skyline Helicopter Tour from New Jersey for my partner's birthday. We’ve never done anything like this before! I love that it's only a short trip from Midtown. I’ve heard the views from the Statue of Liberty to the Empire State Building are breathtaking. Just worried about how they handle cancellations if the weather isn’t good. Has anyone done this? Would love any pointers!

Just got back from the NYC helicopter tour—INCREDIBLE!

WOW, just wow! I took the NYC Skyline Helicopter Tour last week, and it was every bit as amazing as I hoped. Flying from Essex County Airport was super easy. The views of Metlife Stadium and the skyline were unreal! Our pilot gave great commentary too. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for a thrill—just make sure your camera's ready!
