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 fly for free if they sit on a parent's lap. For kids over 2, they need their own seat. Just make sure they can wear the headphones comfortably during the flight!

Q: How do rescheduling policies work if the weather is bad?

A: If the weather looks bad on your scheduled day, the tour operator will reach out to you to reschedule. They’re usually pretty flexible and allow you to pick another available date that works for you.

Q: What do you wear for the helicopter tour? Is it cold up there?

A: It can get a bit chilly up there depending on the time of year, so dress in layers! A light jacket is a good idea, especially if you're going at sunset. Also, make sure to wear closed-toe shoes for safety.

Just booked the helicopter tour for my partner's birthday! Any tips?

I'm so excited! We booked the 45-minute tour starting from Westchester. I'm a bit nervous about the logistics though—like parking and getting to the airport. Also, any must-see spots to look out for during the ride?

Has anyone done the night tour? Is it worth it?

Thinking about surprising my brother with the nighttime helicopter tour. I hear the city lights are amazing from above! Anyone have tips or experiences to share? How’s the view compared to the daytime?
