Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on this helicopter tour?

A: There's no strict age limit, but kids must be at least 2 years old to fly. It's best to check with Wings Air directly since some operators have specific requirements. Also, consider how well your kids handle heights and noise! It’s a beautiful experience but can be overwhelming for some little ones.

Q: What should we wear for the helicopter ride, especially in fall?

A: Dress in layers! The chopper can get chilly, but you'll be warm once you're up in the fall sun. Avoid loose clothing that can get caught in the doors. Closed-toe shoes are a must; you might not want to wear sandals. 😄

Q: What if we need to reschedule our tour?

A: Wings Air is pretty flexible with rescheduling, especially if the weather doesn’t cooperate. Just make sure to give them a call as soon as you know you need to change your plans. They normally allow for rescheduling up to 24 hours in advance without a fee, but it’s good to check their policy directly!

Just did the helicopter tour over Hudson Valley! Wow!

I went on the Private Hudson Valley Fall Foliage Helicopter Charter last weekend, and it was stunning! We flew over the Palisades and saw the Rockefeller Estate from above. The colors were SO vibrant. It was a bit pricey, but honestly, totally worth it. Just a heads up, you might want to book in advance to get your preferred date. Can't wait to go again!

Thinking about gifting this helicopter tour, any advice?

I want to surprise my partner with the fall foliage helicopter ride! Has anyone done this? Would you recommend it? How can I make it more special? They love unique experiences, and this seems perfect!
