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.

We enjoyed the ride and views
We enjoyed the ride and views! Bianca was amazing! My only complaint was that we there wasn’t much to do between the arrival snd flight time. Perhaps a flight movie (or mission impossible) would have been a good distraction.

Awesome to hear you loved our pilot!
Great suggestions for our terminal entertainment, will definitely look into it.
Amazing experience despite a stressful arrival
The helicopter experience itself was amazing and definitely one of the highlights of my NYC trip. The views were incredible, the adrenaline during takeoff was unforgettable, and the overall flight felt very safe and professional.
However, I do think there is room for improvement regarding late arrival policies. I was visiting NYC for the first time and left Manhattan early, but due to transportation issues (mainly Uber delays outside my control), I still arrived late and had to pay a $75 fee. I understand that policies are written in advance, but it was still frustrating considering I genuinely tried to arrive on time.
That said, the actual experience was unforgettable and absolutely worth doing if you're visiting NYC.

Thank you for your feedback.
We're delighted to hear that the flight was one of the highlights of your NYC trip and that you enjoyed the incredible views and overall experience.
We understand your frustration regarding the late arrival fee and appreciate that transportation delays can sometimes be outside a guest's control. While our policies are in place to ensure flights operate on schedule for all passengers, we certainly understand your perspective.
Thank you again for flying with us, and we're glad the experience itself was a memorable one.
All the best,

Piss Poor Customer Service
The flight experience itself was excellent, and once in the air, everything met or exceeded expectations. Unfortunately, the customer service surrounding our booking left a lot to be desired.
One member of our group was ultimately unable to fly due to weight restrictions. While I understand that weight and balance limitations are an important safety requirement, this was not clearly communicated during the booking process. We entered everyone's weights online in advance, yet no warning, disclaimer, or indication was provided that there could be an issue.
When we arrived, staff verified weights and then privately informed our friend that they would not be permitted to fly. While I appreciate the discretion with which that conversation was handled, the situation that followed was disappointing.
Our group consisted of only three people. Rather than offering an earlier flight, a voucher, a partial credit, or discussing any reasonable accommodation, we were essentially told that our options were to proceed without our friend or forfeit the entire booking cost. That placed us in a very difficult position.
What was most frustrating was not the policy itself, but the lack of effort to find a solution. As a result, our friend experienced an embarrassing situation and then had to sit and wait for several hours while the rest of us completed the experience.
I fully understand that businesses must operate within safety requirements and established policies. However, I believe better communication upfront and a willingness to offer some form of compromise or accommodation would have gone a long way toward creating a more positive customer experience.
Overall, the flight was great, but the handling of this situation significantly impacted our impression of the company.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the flight experience itself and that it met your expectations once airborne. At the same time, we are sorry for the circumstances surrounding your group's reservation and understand how disappointing the situation must have been for everyone involved.
As noted in our booking terms and conditions, all passengers are subject to final weight verification at check-in, and FAA weight and balance requirements must be strictly followed for safety reasons. Unfortunately, these determinations can only be finalized once all passengers are present and weighed.
We understand your concerns regarding communication and appreciate your feedback on how the process was handled. While our team must operate within strict safety and operational requirements, we recognize that this created a difficult situation for your group and especially for the passenger who was unable to fly.
As a gesture of goodwill and in recognition of the inconvenience experienced, we issued a partial refund following your visit.
We sincerely appreciate your understanding that safety must remain our highest priority, and we thank you for sharing your experience.
All the best,
perfect communication et great flight

Absolute scam

even if you're late by a minute, they will charge you a $75 per person.
Also, the $99 price is misleading cause they add a 60% booking fee per seat and NOT per booking.

Hello,
Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately, you checked in approximately 45 minutes after the scheduled time for your flight. We were still able to accommodate your departure, and we did not charge any late fees. Instead, we provided the option to upgrade to a longer duration. Additionally, your booking fees cover and include all fees associated with flying by helicopter. Thank you for choosing to fly with us, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future.
All good
All good, this is the best experience you must do. Thank you for the team and our pilot Kacy.

We sincerely regret the inconvenience caused by your canceled appointment and the subsequent rescheduling arrangements, which did not meet your needs. At the time of the incident, the President of the United States was actively traveling through controlled airspace, and this operational circumstance created a highly fluid and time-sensitive environment. We are currently reviewing the events to identify how we can improve our processes and ensure a more reliable experience for our customers going forward.
