Look at the reviews for this disaster staff are rude and not professional then you have all the penalties, no photos, fines if your over weight, must have your passport, cheap saftey video tgen you watch cartoons in Spanish. If you pay for this you will be sorry then say he was right.

Helicopter was amazing best way to see NYC. But would not recommend this company, awful service. Firstly to get to NJ from Manhattan was around $60 in an uber each way (I should of done some better research, but just a warning if you're staying in Manhattan) When we arrived at the meeting point the telephone number provided was not recognised - they stated that you needed to phone for the shuttle bus or you would be charged a late fee. Luckily a bus did turn up but this caused unnecessary anxiety. The pick up point is at a diner that is closed on weekends...so eat before you go. .
The services at the hangar are poor, staff are not helpful and don't keep you informed. There are a couple of vending machines and a unisex toilet. We arrived 2hrs before our flight time to be safe and we did get on an earlier flight which gained us some time back.
Our pilot Scott was amazing and the actual tour was fantastic and truly memorable. But I would not recommend this company at all.

Do not go with this company!!! Very poorly organized! The staff is terrible. It is very far from Manatane in an industrial zone. They will try by all means to make you pay exta. It cost me $229 more. They forced me to pay otherwise I lost all my money. They refused to give me a receipt for what they made me pay for!! There are many other companies much better.
The people next to us had to pay $300 without a receipt either!

Arrived 30 min before flight and was charged $290 extra for being “late” then was out in a room with vin diesel movie playing while they let everyone who came with us in the shuttle go except us. Then after an hour of waiting sat on the flight and literally went one way straight and back, no excitement from the pilot or the team. I was then late for my actual flight back to LA. Felt like a scam. They also went through my phone and made me remove/delete the proof I had of the entire thing. Extremely shady and felt scammed the entire time. No logical explanation was made and we were left disappointed. Especially since it was suppose to be a birthday gift to my bf.

Highly recommend you avoid this company.

Disgusting people - Not a single kind word to be had, barked at us 'Watch this video' with the audio turned all the way down. "Dont take pictures!" "Follow Us!"... I'm sure prison guards are more welcoming.

Refused to let us on our trip unless we let them copy our credit card, front and back including CVN, which violates the requirements of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard.

They claim they keep the photocopy in case they need to charge us for something later. Again, illegal activity if they actually do it.

Feel strongly there are grounds for a class action suit here.

The actual helicopter ride was great unfortunately that’s as far as my praises can go as everything else about this was absolutely atrocious the meeting place is already at a hard to reach location seemingly in the middle of nowhere and you are told to just wait at this random strip of shops and call them for the shuttle to the actual location however if you can’t call them you’re stuffed and that’s exactly what happened to i couldn’t get a hold of them the only way I could contact them at all was emailing their reservations team and after a lot of painful emails and an hour of messing about I happened to see the shuttle they talked about (as the icing on the cake I was told to look for a light blue car and it was black) once I got there they demanded we pay an extra $50 each for late fees since we could have faked being there on time and they wouldn’t listen to any reason even though we had proof of google maps saying we got there a whole hr before our time (15 minutes before they wanted us there) and wouldn’t even bother considering reducing the late fee quite a disgusting business practice
